"So
how do you like you virtuosos: Veteran or wunderkind?...This
was not a compitition, but a glorious collaboration between
two like-minded players who share not only blood but also
a passion for the intricate interplay that chamber music
affords...The recital proved a satisfying combination of
youthful vigor and the kind of musical wisdom that only
comes with experience."
- St. Paul Pioneer Press
"[Ms.
Fried's] readings of a handsome bundle of Mozart Sonatas
were distinguished in their expressive cogency and sound
musical logic. An encore slow movement taken from a Beethoven
Sonata brought some of the warmest and most heartfelt playing
of the night. For his part, Mr. Biss shone with a beautiful
limpid tone, a sensitive touch and a certain Apollonian
refinement. He is indeed a pianist to watch."
