- New Sounds for the Humble Squeeze Box!
(Sue Leigh Waugh - Amazon - review)As a part of this “flow” Lohse explores poly-tempi at several places in the score, calling for the accordion to accelerate while the orchestra remains at a constant speed to thrilling effect.Read full review → - Accordion Concertos New CD/SACD
(Martin Anderson - International Record Review (July-August 2012))... I don’t recall previously hearing any music by the Hans Abrahamsen-student Martin Lohse (b.1971) - painter and poet as well as composer - but I shall certainly be keeping my ears open from now on, since his 16-minute In Liquid... is unassertively lovely...... Lohse knows how to caress the ear and stimulate the mind at the same time: In Liquid … is all the more touching for the understatement of its emotional burden. ...Read full review → - Accordion Concertos
(Richard Whitehouse - Gramophone)... Matin Lohse’s subtle interplay of soloist and orchestra across four movements of varied mood and tempo gives In Liquid... a more individual profile than its Pärt-meets-Glass amalgam might suggest. ...Read full review → - Accordion Concertos
(Tiina Kiik - Wholenote Magazine)... Martin Lohse’s In Liquid (2008/2010) is one of the most original works for accordion I have ever heard. Mogensen makes his brutal technical part sound so easy in this quasi minimalistic exercise in shifting fluid breathtaking sounds. ...Read full review →

(Digital Chips - Amazon-review)... In Liquid, another commission by Mogensen, is radically different. Martin Lohse's work is almost a study in slow motion. Lohse draws out every single note both from the ensemble and the soloist. The sensation is similar to trying to run underwater. And the enforced slowness of the composition makes the listener pay closer attention to the music as it passes by. An effective work, and one that completely removes the accordion from its popular roots. ...Read full review → - Fresh sounds for a folk instrument

(Dr. Debra Jan Bibel - Amazon-review)... Martin Lohse, In Liquid..., begins with a moderately slow, quiet flowing; the middle section starts, or barely starts, in a hesitant fashion and then becomes dramatic with various tempi and tensions. The work closes with a slow, minimalistic pensive reverie. ...Read full review → - Accordion Concertos
(Joshua Kosman - San Francisco Chronicle)How's this for an improbable turn of events: The most beautiful, dramatic and sheerly irresistible disc of new music to cross my desk in months is a compilation of four Scandinavian accordion concertos....... The newer works are even more striking - Anders Koppel's Concerto Piccolo begins with an eerie dreamscape that will give you chills, while Martin Lohse's In Liquid covers a range of styles without abandoning its distinctive and forceful voice.Read full review → - VIRTUOSI IN FOCUS
(The Infodad Team - Infodad.com)... Two of the pieces here, Anders Koppel’s Concerto Piccolo (2009) and Martin Lohse’s In Liquid… (2008/2010), were specifically written for Mogensen, and it is easy to see why. He seems able to make the accordion into something it does not naturally appear to be: an instrument of considerable emotional range, tonal impact and sonic beauty. Both Koppel and Lohse demand accordion playing that is not only virtuosic but also refined and emotive, and Mogensen delivers it with seeming effortlessness throughout both pieces. ...Read full review → - Accordion Concertos
(Norman Lebrecht - La Scena Musicale)If you thought the best way to kill a dinner party is to play modern Nordic concertos on the accordion, think again. Bjarke Morgensen's set by Schmidt, Koppel, Lohse and Norgard, neither lugubrious nor autistic, fizz like an aural set of Northern Lights. Weird and scintillating stuff.Read full review → - Accordion Concertos

(WRUV Reviews - WRUW Reviews)Mostly modern and contemporary Danish works for accordion and orchestra. No oompah here, mostly gentle and lyrical. Nice!Read full review → - Accordion Concertos
(Mikael Garnæs - Fyens Stiftstidende)... Martin Lohses let minimalistiske stil (2008) matcher accordeonens mange muligheder og især Bjarke Mogensens talentfulde spil glimrende. ...Google translationRead full review →
Martin Lohses light minimalist style (2008) match the accordions many possibilities and especially Bjarke Mogensen talented play brilliantly. - Accordion Concertos
(Jens Povlsen - Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten)Den unge akkordeon-djævel Bjarke Mogensen springer frem med gennemslagskraft og ypperlig teknik i Schmidts skarptskårne symfoniske fantasi og både fræser og gynger derudaf i de næste to koncerter.Google translationRead full review →
The young accordion-devil Bjarke Mogensen leap forward with vigor and excellent technique in Schmidt's clean-cut symphonic fantasy, and both swings and cutter along in the next two concerts.
