Pressestimmen
...Der Organist Conrad Zwicky wuchs über sich hinaus mit seinem beseelten Spiel und der virtuosen Technik... (Luzerner Tagblatt)

Zwicky ist ein vorzüglicher mit Temperament und handwerklichem Geschick gesegneter Musiker... (Basler Zeitung)

...Hier muss die grossartige Cembalocadenz erwähnt werden, die Conrad Zwicky meisterhaft und der Stimmung des Satzes so absolut entsprechend interpretierte; das will sagen: die Virtuosität verleitete ihn nicht dazu, zu schnell und zu zackig zu spielen und so das Wehmütige des Satzes zu übertönen oder zu zerstören. ..... (Thalwiler Anzeiger)

...Conrad Zwicky an der Orgel erbrachte technisch und interpretatorisch grossartige Leistungen... (Luzerner Tagblatt)

Conrad Zwicky spielt die richtungsweisenden Werke in aparten Registerkombinationen, geschmeidig und mit sensibler Agogik. (Der Bund)

Zwickys agogisch unprätentiöses Spiel, mit sicherem Gespür für Spannungsverläufe, führt zu überzeugenden Interpretationen. (Neue Zürcher Zeitung)
