Noah....I have always loved Chopin's music, but you make it truly come alive. I feel like I'm listening to a story about your life, not just notes. :) And p.s., I miss you!!!!!

Noah, it is not only because I am your mom, (well, and chauffeur, cook, laundress, companion, critic, teacher, photographer, etc) that I find your performance in this capture so moving. Your eloquence, sense of timing...your sense of the beautiful and how to shepherd it into other lives is quite remarkable for such a youngling. Besides, I just love the pink bow tie. So many hours of dreaming, listening, practicing, and endless verbage about this ballade has served us all well. I just love you!

Noah... Absolutely breathtaking performance!! I wish I could have been there to experience the performance in person. You've got a great future in piano ahead if you.
