Press Reviews
"Everything he played was touched by genuinely sensitive musical comprehension. And, commendably, his fleet-fingered facility was not once forced to serve strident and/or gimmicky vulgarities. Prevailing were Chopinesque rubato put to poetic uses, and a warm singing tone." --LOS ANGELES TIMES "The audience of nearly 5,000 seemed to enjoy everything, especially the Rodigo excerpt -- so very sad and exquisitely poignant -- and the genius of Tinturin so haunting that an encore was essential." --REDLANDS EVENING TELEGRAM "Tinturin demonstrated a formidable technique and a sure feel for the mood of the music. Nicely demonstrated the soloist's clear articulation of individual notes, powerful chordal work and dazzling passage work." --PALO ALTO TIMES "A performer of skill and much musical sensitivity. He traversed a magnificent musical landscape in utterly absorbing and telling fashion." --MONTEREY PENINSULA HERALD |
