"Luevano has great energy, a pleasant tone and solid fingers... Koga is solid at the keyboard, granting each score with essential character and rhythmic intensity... Kesselman steals the show with exceptional color and clarity, superb diction and heartfelt phrasing... important contribution to the repertoire."  (American Record Guide)

 

“Clarinetist Kimberly Cole Luevano is a most skillful artist who answers Etezady’s call to virtuosity with perfect runs while pianist Midori Koga accompanies her with clear and accurate pianism….(Kesselman) has a fully-loaded palette of tone color that she blends with the exquisite playing of Cole Luevano. (She) and Midori Koga play all of the music on this Fleur de Son disc with exquisite tone colors….(Kesselman’s) singing is simply gorgeous." (Fanfare Magazine)
