Thank you for featuring Annie Blythe on the world stage. She did a remarkable program, featuring not only the works of Bach and other stalwart composers, but also her own unique compositions that enhanced our appreciation of what she can do as a musician and what can be done with a solo cello. It was a dramatic and masterful performance by a talented musician.”
