Critical Praise
“Ivan Vihor is an artist with great temperament and musical charm, and possesses a beautiful and profound sound and sonority.”
Vladimir Krpan — Legendary Croatian pianist & pedagogue
“His interpretation is characterized by transparency and discrete ornamentation. Vihor plays very sensitively, without affectation, but with considerable differentiation and intelligence.”
