I was so very struck by your very beautiful sonority, that I would like to hear you again in my favourite works, Faure, Ravel and, of course, Debussy.”  
–Madame de Tinan, step-daughter of Claude Debussy, in a letter to Olga Craen
 
“Madame Olga Craen, laureate of the Marguerite Long-Jacques Thibaud International Contest, possesses a disciplined technique, suppleness and infinite ease. She is a virtuoso full of assurance, an intelligent and sensitive artist.”
–Le Soir, Brussels, November 1951

She was, quite simply, a phenomenon. That Madame Olga Craen stunned the international music world with her prowess on the piano is indisputable. She and her Belgian husband Jules Craen were the country’s best known music teachers, dominating the Bombay music scene for 50 years.
