  • Beautifully nuanced in time and tone. I heard subtleties that are submerged in other performances.

  • Very nicely done, and some lovely sensitive spots amidst the fire and brilliance. I remember in my other house during your lessons with me, I got you fired up and told you to play with more fire and intensity in addition to the softer playing--well, your playing has matured and has a wide range of sound now and this is very personal and your own way with the piece. I appreciate that you play this with good rhythm and color as opposed to the tendency to play it too fast and loud. Bravo!
