“Chee-Yun has not only extraordinary talent, but the poise and natural self-confidence of a seasoned veteran and born performer. Her technique is brilliant and utterly secure, her tone like butter, smooth, rich and flawless.”
Strings
“This is a talented instrumentalist, with the kind of high-gloss tone that pulls sensuously at the listener’s ear.”
The New York Times
“Mr. Bax, who counts a 2009 Avery Fisher Career Grant among his numerous awards and accolades, is worth getting excited about.”
The New York Times
“...the ear was repeatedly caught by Bax’s powerful sense of the music’s rise and fall, his sophisticated management of harmonic tensions. His slow-movement introduction, tugging at those gorgeous phrases as if wanting to hold on forever, was of heart-stopping beauty.”
