"Thank you for presenting such a wonderful program, and for your well-wishes for our series."

"It was our privilege to have you on our series.

"The music was fantastic and the audience loved you both."

"Thanks Laura and Susan.......everyone who attended really enjoyed your performance.

"We enjoyed your superb performance and listening to your marvelous music.

"Kobayashi and Gray slid confidently into each of the road’s three moods: the biting, bluegrassy opening with relentless rhythm, the calm inner movement (Kobayashi’s full tone almost viola-like) and the moto perpetuo spiccato third movement, which was driven and tight.

"Sonata No.1 for violin and piano (1994) by Elisenda Fabregas (b. 1955) was played by the Kobayashi/Gray Duo (Laura Kobayashi, violin, and Susan Keith Gray, piano)

"The two performing artists have appeared together as a musical team for the last ten years.

"Your performance was enthusiastically received by our audience and I continued to receive rave reviews after Tuesday evening.

"The violinist and pianist were in top form and played with much beauty of tone as well as color of phrasing.

"........these two talented musicians collaborated to produce insightful interpretations of works that all richly deserve to be heard more often."
