“…The prime moment came during the second movement (F. Chopin Piano Concerto No.1), Yamamoto is excellent in producing tones with lyrical melody lines. She has developed and mastered her own modes of expression through her great facility in various piano techniques…”
– Tami Nodaira, “Ongaku no Tomo” magazine, 2018

 


“…She completely picked the pace by “Home Trained” F. Liszt performing, she invited the audience to the euphoric world by the polished techniques and the bright beautiful tones. Above all, the emotional tension, the scale, and the deep breathing of “Après une lecture du Dante-Fantasia quasi sonata" were the proof of the first-class pianist…”
- Takuo Ikeda, 2021

 


“…A finely spun Dante Sonata from Eri Yamamoto after a scintillating Rigoletto paraphrase…”
