One of the elements in my music is an obsession for equal and unequal sounding identical information. Luckily I never had this obsession treated.

Reviews
Robert Nasveld presents a wonderful example of the bitter melancholy that is the essence of the blues with his beautiful Frozen Blues.
Frits van der Waa, Volkskrant
He understands my music as no other.
George Crumb in NRC Handelsblad
Even when things could theoretically become serious, for example in Six Cavafy songs (2009), a song cycle using the poetry of Greek poet Kavafis, the tone remains springlike and sparking.
Jochem ValkenburgNRC
Crumb himself could not have wished for a better recording.
Volkskrant, CD review
Pianist and composer Robert Nasveld is an outsider; as radio producer and indefatigable advocate of American composer George Crumb he is a man of significance.
Hans Heg, Klassiekezaken.nl
Robert Nasveld’s music presented surprising power of expression.
Frau Dr. Alena Borková in Rovnost
Robert Nasveld’s set of the Complete Works for One Piano by George Crumb is well worth having.
Peter Dickinson in Gramophone
Robert Nasveld writes exceptionally beautiful music, although its beauty is not pastoral, but contradictory, unstable, disturbing, capable of stimulating all spiritual forces of the listener.

When you are at a dead end with a student, ‘Hand over Hand’ has funny, exciting, sensitive pieces to make him/her enthusiastic again.

My reference for comparison with Crumb’s Makrokosmos IV is that of Robert Nasveld on the Attacca label, 9371 and 9372. My main reason for selecting this version is that it has always come out on top, all other recordings which I have come across long having gone by the wayside.
