Pressestimmen  
"Höller’s Piano Concerto is scored with absolute mastery, and fashioned with notable finesse and delicacy; his sureness of aim made the first encounter a rare pleasure. Upon a carefully controlled harmonic foundation Höller plasces layers of lacy, fluttery, arabesquing instrumental texture – the piano part alone compiles a contemporary thesaurus of beguiling multi-note figuration. But the work is not just a collection of aural titillations; it has shape, direction, and clear design." (Max Loppert, Financial Times, 05 Dec 1985)
