“Soloist in the Garth was 12-year-old Hong Kong-born Katrina Yang Bauer who played with remarkable confidence for a musician cast into the spotlight at such a young age. For the Stravinsky, Khudyev showed why his professional opportunities are rapidly expanding; he shushed the strings down to a gripping pianississimo at the end of the berceuse. Few professional orchestra conductors demonstrate such faith in their instincts and, more important, their musicians.”
