​

• “So richtig zum Zuge kommt Christoph Croisé in der großartig engagierten, 1995 für Pezzotti geschriebenen Jazz Sonata: In nur sechs Minuten blitzt hier alles gekonnt auf, was der Hörer von einer virtuosen Cellosonate erwarten darf.” – Martin Blaumeiser, Klassik-Heute

​

• “Very-well-recorded CD … nicely explores Schnyder’s propensity for specific types of rhythmic, harmonic and instrumental blending and contrast …” – Mark Estren, Infodad.com

​

• “… His [Croisé] involvement in this project speaks well of his creativity and his flexibility. There are not many classically trained cellists who can play music in this style with such authenticity and assurance…” – Raymond Tuttle, Fanfare

​

• “Zwei Schweizer Musiker, die schon seit vielen Jahren zusammenarbeiten: Der Komponist und Saxophonist Daniel Schnyder und der Cellist Christoph Croisé. Ihr erstes gemeinsames Album ist – typisch für die Musik von Schnyder – ein lustvolles Zusammenbringen von zeitgenössischer Klassik und Jazz.” – Valerio Benz, SRF 2 Kultur

​

• “The present col­lab­or­a­tion with com­poser and sax­o­phon­ist Daniel Schnyder is long stand­ing, the Con­certo for Cello, Per­cus­sion and Strings espe­cially com­mis­sioned by Croisé. Here, Latin-amer­ican pulsat­ing rhythms shake hands with exotic melis­matic lyr­ical writ­ing. Dazzling vir­tu­osic cello lines swirl, as the express­ively intense cello melody soars over the punc­tu­at­ing per­cus­sion, delivered with razor-sharp pre­ci­sion.” – ***** Jo Talbot, BBC Music Magazine (1/2026)
