Nadia Reisenberg
Heartiest thanks for a beautiful performance of my Polish Fantasy.
– I.J. Paderewski, 1922
I’ll never forget the cycle of concertos which revealed for me lots of Mozart beauty that I keep in my heart with much gratefulness…
– Arthur Rubinstein, 1979
Clara Rockmore
She played so beautifully the violin then as she plays the theremin now…I wish she could teach all the young musicians who are learning to make music, because they should learn from her what it means to play a phrase from the heart…Like Nadia, Clara is fantastic.
– Alexander Schneider, 1989
