Review
Theater Jones (USA)
"Appropriate to the arrival, just a few hours after the close of the recital, of July—the month of the great national holidays of both the U.S. and France—Larderet encored with Debussy’s Prelude Feu d’artifice (“Fireworks”), delivered with explosive energy." -

Florent SCHMITT - NAXOS CD
3 selected CDs for a focus on the composer by Rob Barnett
"Larderet, who has a reputation for his Ravel, has said of Salomé that it is 'one of the most difficult piano works I have ever performed — on par with Beethoven’s Hammerklavier Sonata and Ravel’s Gaspard de la nuit'. The latter was said to have been in the mix when Schmitt wrote his Ombres. The disc’s notes remind us that Stravinsky, the score’s dedicatee, wrote to Schmitt in 1912 saying of Salomé 'Dear God it’s beautiful! It’s one of the greatest masterpieces in modern music' ". -

CD review
Clavier Companion Magazine (USA) - July / August 2018 issue
Debussy Centenary ARS SACD-CD
"Larderet delivers a personal and well-crafted performance of Images Book I, choosing unusual voicings which produce admirable clarity from start to finish. Further in his performances of the second Book of Préludes, he shares unique interpretative ideas, sculpting every texture and layer as if painting a picture and telling a story with his sound. [...] Where this disc truly shines, however, is in Larderet arrangement of the Caplet transcription of Debussy Symphonic Fragments of Le Martyre de saint Sébastien. [...] On this disc, one hears two masters at work : Debussy for harmony and style, and Larderet for flair and appeal." -

Fanfare Magazine (USA) N°41:5 - May-June 2018
Debussy Centenary ARS SACD-CD
Myron Silberstein
" This is a stunningly played recital of two of Debussy’s most familiar cycles and a world premiere of pianist Vincent Larderet’s expansion of André Caplet’s piano reduction of Debussy’s incidental music to Grabriele D’Annunzio’s Le Martyre de saint Sébastien. Reviews in these pages of Larderet’s previous work have been unanimously positive. Peter Burwasser recently (40:4) grouped him with Pollini, Brendel, and Badura-Skoda as 'masterful technicians and intellectual[s].' John Bell Young wrote (39:3) that Larderet 'has blossomed into a great pianist indeed.' And Colin Clarke (35:5) described his playing as 'gripping and multitimbred.' I will add that it is full of vivid colors, subtle rubato, and an equal affinity for the contemplative and the virtuosic aspects of Debussy’s writing." -

Debussy Centenary ARS SACD
3 Debussy selected recordings
« Lyrisch tönt die Interpretation von Vincent Larderet, der neben dem zweiten Buch der Préludes und den Images auch die Ersteinspielung einer Transkription der sinfonischen Fragmente von Le Martyre de saint Sébastien vorlegt. Hier schlagen zwei französische Seelen im Einklang. » -

Debussy Centenary ARS SACD
Linien und Farben
Gregor Willmes
"Klarheit schafft Debussy hier immer wieder dadurch, dass er einzelne Stimmen in einem dritten System notiert. Die Gegenüberstellung von Einzelstimmen und Akkorden, die höchst differenzierte Dynamik und das parallele Spiel der Farben erfordern vom Interpreten ein Höchstmaß auch in den Bereichen der Agogik und der Pedalisierung. Larderet besitz in dieser Hinsicht Großen Feinsinn." -
