PRESS REVIEWS, COMMENTS

" Pianist Carine Gutlerner's comet passes through again. At Carnegie Hall's elegant Weill Recital Hall, she made a stirring return (...). She was, as we've grawn used to, in full command of her varied and challenging program. The full house picked up on Gutlerner's preparedness and subsequent assurance immediately, as they responded with a very appreciative applause. The audience was clearly drawn in as much by her commanding playing as by the evening's outstanding choice of repertoire (...). In New York City, we will be waiting for her return. Rolf Kristian Stang, The Norwegian American.
