 GLORIA
CHIEN, PIANIST
Pianist Gloria Chien has been picked by the Boston
Globe as one of the Superior Pianists of the year, “… who
appears to excel in everything.” Richard Dyer praises her for “a
wondrously rich palette of colors, which she mixes with dashing
bravado and with an uncanny precision of calibration…Chien's
performance had it all, and it was fabulous." Those in
Clarksville who heard Gloria at the piano in collaboration with
clarinetist David Shifrin can certainly attest to that
assessment.

 BRENTANO
STRING QUARTET
Since its inception in 1992, the Brentano String
Quartet has appeared throughout the world to popular and
critical acclaim. "Passionate, uninhibited and spellbinding,"
raves the London Independent; the New York Times extols the
quartet’s "luxuriously warm sound [and] yearning lyricism"; the
Philadelphia Inquirer praises its “seemingly infallible
instincts for finding the center of gravity in every phrase and
musical gesture”; and the Times (London) opines, "the Brentanos
are a magnificent string quartet...This was wonderful, selfless
music-making."
