The New York Times

"Mr. Kreger's playing is strong, vigorous and impassioned. It was always firmly controlled, never losing musical or tonal focus."

 

The New York Times

"His performances have a spontaneous, even passionate, immediacy yet he is always in control of the situation; it's difficult to imagine anyone playing the cello better than this."

 

The New York Times

"Under his hands, the instrument has a grain in its voice that sounds almost human."

 

Newport Daily News

"Kreger is a cellist of formidable power, yet he possesses solid control and one of the very beautiful cantilenas among cellists today."

 

Musical America

"Within measures, Kreger established his 'voice' - and what a commanding sound it was! For the slow, romantic utterance, his playing is unsurpassed."

 

Boston Globe

"Kreger can play the cello astoundingly. He has a concentrated, hot sound of unusual power, and a combination of good ear and good left hand that keep his playing in tune even where things become technically very difficult."

 

Indianapolis News

"In the cadenza, his technique was breathtaking in its assurance and tonal purity. Unafraid of emotions, he invested the lyrical sections with an honesty that spoke thunderingly of his gifts as a musician."

 

New York Post

"Kreger's tone was simply wonderful: mellow, rich, consistent throughout."

 

London Daily Telegraph

"...a welcome breadth of tone, an eloquence born of total conviction."
