CRITICS SAY:

"Rare are the pianists who possess the mental and physical equipment to tackle Ives' mighty Concord Sonata' ... Zumbro grasped its vision with heroic force and hurled it like one of Emerson's thunderbolts. " Andrew Porter, The Times, London

"Mr Zumbro..is a musician in whose playing the sun shines, irradiating its environment. He is perfectly at home in Granados's efflorescent sonorities, tenuous asides and melancholy. The authority of his reading is not only in its elegance and imagination but in its audacity. He brings to every phrase the kind of rhythmic life and affective precision that would be the envy of most of his colleagues... an interpretation of the greatest eloquence..." John Bell Young, The American Record Guide
