Cristopher Axworthy, 9 October 2025 — “The clarity and precision of a master musician”

“The ‘Allegro’ central interruption was played with dynamic brilliance and extraordinary clarity. Driving Beethovenian impatience was quelled with the exquisite beauty of the return of the ‘Andante’ that just dissolved to a whisper without any rallentando! Susanna’s extraordinary intelligence and musicianship allowed each movement to flow into the next in a work of unique originality for its time. A true ‘Allegro molto e vivace’ second movement, was played with the irascible youthful Beethovenian drive and impatience, with the central driving bass rhythms giving extra energy always especially when played with the dynamism of this young Swiss pianist.

“…were playing as if controlled by a single mind, with a delightfully varied range of tone from each of them contributing to the sound palette of the solo group.” “…each has surely far to go in their careers from now on. It was an inspiration to witness them making music together.”

Cristopher Axworthy, August 2025

“… Susanna opened with Scarlatti of delicacy and precision. A dynamic drive and energy within the notes themselves with subtle refined phrasing, managing to create a jewel of glistening brilliance. It was the same intelligence and refined tonal palette that gave such weight and importance to Liszt’s late Hungarian Rhapsody. A work rarely heard in the concert hall was here rediscovered and reborn with a refined musicianship that was of radiance and beauty rather than rhetorical showmanship.”

Gino Driussi, Cooperazione, June 2025

“…tocco fine e delicato e una profonda sensibilità musicale…”

“…a fine and delicate touch and a profound musical sensitivity…”

“…affascinò pubblico e critica con il suo tocco fine e delicato, l’elevato virtuosismo e la profonda sensibilità musicale.”

“…she captivated audience and critics with her fine and delicate touch, elevated virtuosity, and profound musical sensitivity.”

“Susanna Braun had no problems with the display elements but found warmth and guileless purity in the gentler writing.”

“Thoughtfully articulated, and she caught a gentle, bitter-sweet and evocative quality.”

“the finale turns the piano into a thunderous accompanist… a role she filled exuberantly.”

Zu Beginn des neuen Jahres konnte man am vergangenen Sonntag im Seehotel Waldstätterhof bereits einen ersten kammermusikalischen Höhepunkt erleben. Die beiden jungen Musiker Mateusz Pawel Kaminski, Violoncello und Susanna Daniela Braun am Flügel begeisterten das Publikum mit ihrem musikalischen und perfekten Zusammenspiel. In der kurzen Begrüssung durch Dr.Markus Riek war zu erfahren, dass das Konzert auch als Dank von Mateusz Pawel Kaminski an die Markant Stiftung gedacht war, die dem jungen Musiker das Spiel auf seinem aus dem 18.Jh. stammenden italienischen Violoncello ermöglichte.

Ha un bel sorriso e un viso dolce; parla molto bene italiano, anche se ha sangue svizzero tedesco e pensa in inglese. Da diversi mesi ha preso domicilio a Torre, con la sua famiglia, nella sontuosa Villa Lina di Torre. Si chiama Susanna Braun, è nata nei Paesi Bassi, a L’Aia, da genitori svizzeri, ha 21 anni ed è pianista.

di Luca Pfaff (11.07.21)

Bella questa iniziativa nata dalla volontà della giovane pianista Susanna Braun di proporre della musica da camera circondata da giovani colleghi della stessa generazione, tutti animati da un gran entusiasmo e da capacità strumentali di primo ordine.
