as is becoming a repeated feature of my exceedingly busy life, I didn't get a chance to listen to everything yet, but the first movement is positively great, and the first half of the second as well.  excellent job!  hopefully I'll finish work at a decent hour and be able to listen to the rest.

Hi Josh,

I listened to the entire Fantasy and was highly impressed by your rendition.  Bravo!
Interpreting music means exploring the promise of the potential of possibilities.

I listened to the rest of it last night, and was duly impressed.  But I think I liked the Brahms better, although I will attribute that to my own personal tastes as opposed to your playing.  You've clearly worked very hard for your degree, and I look forward to hearing more of your recordings in the future.

That was incredible! I think I prefer the second movement slightly slower, but that's only my (uneducated) taste. The only problem is that I think my teacher has gone insane. There's no way I will EVER have the technique to learn the third movement... but I suppose that's alright, since the first movement is beautiful enough :)
It all happens on Discworld, where greed and ignorance influence human behavior... and perfectly ordinary people occasionally act like raving idiots.

A world, in short, totally unlike our own.
