Feedback

Degrees of separation


"I love baroque music and he plays it with an understanding that is clear and immediate... joyous and playful interaction, lighter and more dancelike."


"...in admiration for the playing and the player."


"...the understanding and connection with the works were a pleasure and clearly evident and his patter was informative, even educational"
