".. . quite a bit more than a tribute to J.S. Bach, whose Well-Tempered Clavier, an exploration of all the major and minor keys, serves as his model. Mr. Ryzuk has so perfectly absorbed the intricate craft of Bach that he has undertaken to compose his own set of preludes and fugues and has developed them with great ingenuity and invention as well as a mastery of Bachian counterpoint. Altogether, this is a daring undertaking for the 1990's and one richly realized in the composer's own piano performance."
- Dick Hyman
"Regan Ryzuk is a remarkable musician. His talents bridge the distance between inventive jazz piano and classical composition. Even as daunting a form as ‘Inventions and Fugues In All Keys,' which Bach employed to establish our tonal system, poses no apparent problem to Mr. Ryzuk's abilities. Using contemporary harmonies to bring this idiom into our times, his inherent melodic sense produces forty-eight moving pieces of music. If you have not heard Regan Ryzuk, prepare yourself for a treat.
