"Pianist Routenberg is a poetic soul. His tone is like drops of liquid gold, with exquisite voicing and meticulous phrasing...Routenberg exhibited a formidable mastery of keyboard technique, but never produced a harsh or strident tone. The piano literally sang in his hands, and it was a joy to hear a clear, easily discernable melodic line with luscious legato. Routenberg is also an intellect whose delight in rhythmic puzzles teased the ear and brain. Soprano Kathleen Grace joined the trio midway through the first half of the concert, further confirming Routenberg's abilities- he is a superb accompanist."
