“The piano is an extension of Markus Gottschlich’s personality as truly as the trumpet was a conduit for Dizzy Gillespie’s voice. And the guitar is another appendage that Eric Clapton was born with so naturally in his hands. Nobody could imagine either Gillespie or Clapton without their instruments, which is something that both men have in common with Gottschlich.” – Jazzreveiw.com
 

“Pianist Markus Gottschlich is poised to become one of the country’s leading jazz performers.”- Miami Magazine
 

“His exquisite technique, combined with a passion for jazz, created an intimate and cathartic atmosphere at the Olympia theater. The many nuances of his notes led the audience to experience all the states of the soul, reason enough to achieve one of the biggest ovations of the evening on Saturday.” – EFE USA

 “What cannot be debated is Gottschlich’s skill as a player and a painter emotion via music… the nine selections feel much longer because of the wealth of detail, the constant surprise, and the depth of emotion that is present in virtually every moment.”- AllAboutJazz.com
