About
“She played Liszt’s monumental B minor Sonata with enormous assurance… Relatively few pianists have the sense of architecture to organize this pianistic symphonic poem. She marshalled the sustaining power to see the music through to the end, at which point her audience not surprisingly rose to its feet.” Toronto Star (Canada)

Awards and reviews
April 2011
playing of a formidable power and assurance. Her fugue is more pedestrian than concentrated but the pages before the valedictory coda, with its glassy sighs and veiled threats, take off like the proverbial rocket. She also storms the central Andante sostenuto's climax with a vengeance, turning on the fiercest voltage.
