Thomas Frost (New York), Impresario of Vladimir Horowitz, wrote about Jean-Baptiste Muller: «I have heard Jean-Baptiste Muller perform at the 1984 Busoni Piano Competition and am very impressed by his unusual and superior talent. There is not only a love of music making that manifests itself immediately and wins over any audience, but a wealth of original and interesting ideas that shape his interpretation in to the kind of personal statements that have marked the performances of all great pianists. There is freshness, joy and technical security in Mr. Mullers playing of various styles from Beethoven to Chopin to Liszt to Busoni.»
