Beyond Novelty, 16 July 2006
By Michael J Edelman - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Art of the Toy Piano [IMPORT] (Audio CD)
It's a great pity that this album has gone out of print, as Margaret Leng Tang shows here that the toy piano can be more than just a novelty. She demonstrates that it has a unique voice particularly suited to many melodies- especially when played with great sensitivity and touch. Her Satie seesm especially suited to the instrument. If this intrigues you, try to hunt down a copy of this album.

Gamelan-like sound and varied writing, 23 Nov 1999
By E. Turgeon - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Art of the Toy Piano [IMPORT] (Audio CD)
There were a few duds, but most of the tracks were enchanting... or funny... or hypnotic... or sweet and wistful. A good introduction to some contemporary composers and the Bang On A Can festival, too. I listened to this album straight through and I hardly ever do that. On my copy, at least, the tracks were off between the disc and the label.

Unusual Sound, 27 Sep 2004
By Leopold Bloom - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Art of the Toy Piano [IMPORT] (Audio CD)
The sharp sound with minimal sustain is unlike anything else; hard, clear, and perfectly resolved in Tan's superb performance. The CD contains a good mix of old standards ("Moonlight Sonata," Satie's "Gymnopedie" -- although thankfully not the ubiquitous 1st) and newer pieces written for toy piano. The track listing is confusing but correct; the odd font used for the track numbers may be matched with the corresponding title by following the thin red line at the base of each number.
