Review Excerpts from our Salish Sea Early Music Festival program in February:
” …a world of tender and brilliant magic. …A music so refined, it draws and draws, yet never swamps the senses …virtuosity and technical brilliance … spell-binding … I couldn’t be quite sure I hadn’t dreamed it all.” (“Music in Victoria“, February 22, 2014)
