NEW YORK "Guy Bovet … is a colorful, theatrical organist … he had serious Bach in him too, as he showed in the mighty Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor … And he could play with tripping, unostentatious grace, as in the delicate G Major Fugue … Still, it was the colorful wit that stuck in the memory."
The New York Times
CLEVELAND "Guy Bovet transformed the king of instruments into a bubbling source of musical champagne … The Swiss organist's playing was clear, dry and sparkling. He filled every phrase with rhythmic life and made every piece on his program into a song or a drama. Best of all, he showed a delightful sense of humor, a rarity among organists …"
