The Boston Globe
"The real treat was the following performance of William Alwyn’s Lyra Angelica for harp and strings. The performance of the Adagio was utterly beautiful, showcasing the masterfully gripping technique of featured harp soloist Susan Robinson over an atmosphere of eerie string melodies. Robinson’s performance was wildly enrapturing, with a sense of poignancy that lingered well after the conclusion of the piece."

Here's What Our Fans are Saying:
"I just got home from attending the Debussy concert and feel transported from the music. Thank you so much for starting these concerts up again.
I was at the Lyon Park building last spring for a baby shower and was telling the mother-to-be how I used to come there for chamber music concerts and how good they were: both the quality of the music and the intimate venue.
Anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to future concerts."
"What a wonderful evening! From the familiar cheeriness of Scott Joplin to the craziness of Piazzolla, we were entertained, amazed and very, very impressed. Philippe, Amy and Joel are spectacular performers. Thank you for bringing them to play in our humble little clubhouse"!
"CONGRATULATIONS on another wonderful afternoon of joyous music making. You are such a talented family and we are blessed to have you in the neighborhood. "
"The music, as always, was wonderful, provocative, and unexpected."
"Awesome!"
