Spectacular Meeting of Young Violin Virtuosos
Nürtinger Zeitung

"Johanna Roehrig from Luebeck stepped onto the podium to create a painting of sound of Nordic vastness playing the first movement of Jean Sibelius's violin concerto. Its elegiac themes, meditative solo passages and dance figures were executed convincingly and met with great approval by the audience."

"The young musicians then played the 'Scheherazade' by Rimski-Korsakow with astounding rhythmic precision and wide variety in sound. Anyone who had been surprised until then that the Landesjugendorchester didn't present a solo concerto but solely relied on the collective's attraction was put right by the solo passages of the leader of the orchestra, Johanna Roehrig. Even though she was the first to act among her peers, her playing of the violin was one of solo format definitely.”

"Johanna captured the reflective mood, and highlighted the periodic, more agitated moments before returning to the flowing languid melody so reminiscent of a gentle rustic dance."
"It was exquisitely played, with Johanna demonstrating such skill and control over some complex phrasing and very high notes indeed. It is not an easy work to absorb, but both players seemed at one with their interpretation."
"It was a brilliant performance, full of colour and atmosphere and a real test of this pair’s musical abilities. It does not come better than this and the audience responded rapturously."

Baroque Music Performed with Virtuosity
​Schwarzwälder Bote

"In a positive sense, she stood out musically with her technically perfect playing, her artistic interpretation and violinistic aura. She offered pure aesthetics in Bach's A minor violin concerto. The figurative delicacy of the first movement, the solemn gravity and the finely spun tones of the Adagio as well the con fuoco designed finale cause everyone to hold their breath."

​"Her incredibly finely differentiated dynamics and her playing, rich in nuances in every respect, makes one sit up and distinguishes her as an artist who can hope for a great future. ”
"Her Schumann narrative art (turns out to be) just too electrifying; suggestive, capricious, humorous and crowned by a fascinating technical accuracy at the same time."
"... incredibly emotive sound intensity."

"The most important thing is to believe in yourself and not lose your love of music through all the ups and downs."

Pure Passion
Die Rheinpfalz

​"When Leopold Mozart said that no one could play the Adagio from the said sonata (B flat major, KV 454) more sensitively than Strinasacchi (who W. A. Mozart wrote the sonata for), he should have heard Johanna Roehrig Thursday evening."
