--Cincinnati Enquirer
Now in the fifth decade of an illustrious international career, pianist Misha Dichter performs worldwide in recitals and with the world's great orchestras in repertoire that spans the Russian Romantic school, the German classical style, and the great works of our time. Dichter has been praised by the New York Times for "a ravishing performance... Mr. Dichter's reading was that of a flesh-and-blood poet, gently inflected, keenly felt, and executed with breathtaking polish from start to finish."
The Harlem Quartet, praised for its "panache" by the New York Times, is "bringing a new attitude to classical music, one that is fresh, bracing and intelligent," says the Cincinnati Enquirer.
