Hi  C B

I must admit that I'm unfamiliar with this composer, but his compositions have a lot of charm as heard in your performances here. I believe that these romances give the impression that they are more nostalgia than passion.  But your playing brings out the best in all three numbers in my opinion.  You exhibit a fine technique in meeting the demands, and your interpretations are very convincing.  Marvelous playing!

Hi Chris,

Three elegant and well-played miniatures! I especially liked the last piece, performed with perfect articulation, sense of rhythm, and nuance. Nicely done!

I was sorry when you were Finnish.

Thanks Glenn ! But ...

Being Dutch I've never been Finnish. Or "did you mean finished" ;-)

Madetoja--one of Finland's finest. Yes, a bad joke.
