wonderfully fleeting-fingered……magic mandolin playing. "If ever a single CD could do something to break down widespread prejudices against the instrument,…….
then this surely is it. Alison Stephens is not only a virtuoso of the instrument, she is also, and more importantly, a real musician………plays with complete
technical command and musical intelligence. The music could scarcely have a better advocate." “Stephens is great to watch. Evidently in love with her two mandolins she talks of them as close friends.
She plays them brilliantly, achieving the almost impossible.” "Her tone is lovely, her technique flawless, and her poise exquisite.” |
