Critics

	Fassang! – Élet és Irodalom, December 22, 2006 “Without a doubt […] László Fassang is an extremely talented member of the young organist generation. His artistic abilities attract both the audience and the orchestra playing with him, which also means that he will set an example worthy to be followed by the Hungarian musical world.”
	Music has become statuesque – Fejér Megyei Hírlap, July 26, 2006 “For us, lovers of organ music, it was an uplifting experience to listen to a media star organist, who is not only a star, but also an excellent musician that can truly play the organ well. This is not always the case. [...] One of the greatest accomplishments of László Fassang’s style is that when he plays, music becomes statuesque – one can almost touch the form in front of one’s eyes.”
	Organ recital, conversation, improvisation – fidelio.hu, Nov. 22, 2004 “László Fassang’s interpretation of Bach’s Trio Sonata in E minor (BWV 528) has further enriched our image of him: it’s not only his hands and feet that are quick, but – if I may say it thus – his mind as well. He played even this incredibly difficult piece without notes while maintaining clear articulation. […] Jean-Louis Florentz’s piece, Mary’s Harp, is supposed to be so difficult that it’s almost impossible to play – well, this was not at all apparent at Fassang’s recital.”
	Bleu de Chartres – Le Figaro, September 7, 2004 “László Fassang received the Grand Prize for a good reason. After completing his studies at the Franz Liszt Academy in Budapest, he came to France to perfect his skills with the greatest French organists. […] He was able to play all of the pieces with complete regard for the style and yet with perfect freedom: his Bach was crystal clear, and he made Jehan Alain’s Three Dances’ “Joy” movement a real expression of inner rejoicing.”
	Affreschi in musica dall'Ungheria - L'Eco di Bergamo, 12 October 2003 "L'artista si e mosso con semplicita e disinvoltura da Bach a Liszt fino alla grande improvvisazione finale"
	Performances reach new peaks - Calgary Herald, 11 August, 2002 "Fassang's performance of the D major Prelude and Fugue, one of the most treacherous of the major Bach works, was a true marvel, not only for its overall musical and technical discipline, but for its exemplary pedal work."
	Un concert d'une intrépide jeunesse! - Ouest-France, 21 November 1995 "Musique qui chante et jubile, chacun des six mouvements fut un kaleidoscope de couleurs et de rhytmes..."
