Critics have hailed Tomasz Liebig´s playing as having „violin artistry that was dazzling and very soul satisfying…equal to every technical demand…in some of his playing I have heard things I have never heard before“ (The Town-Crier); „(Liebig) possesses an exceptionally sweet, attractive tone…his playing has intensity, breadth and character a quality often missing among today’s young violinists… a violinist who phrases spaciously and permits the music to breath in all the right places…played with passionate conviction, nobility plus a dusky sense of mystery“ (Miami Herald); „His playing encompasses a brilliant technique, superb musicianship, great warmth and consummate musicality“ (Daily Trojan); „he developed an artistic technique…in harmony with his musicality…comfortable on stage…reaches audience in a big way“ (R.Lipsett – Prof. at USC).
