Press about the CD Here (and there):
"…an excellent example of what can happen when a pianist of Astolfi's calibre explores the sonic possibilities that electronic enhancements can bring to a compositional work." - Textura
"Astolfi has an extraordinary presence…" - Classical-Modern Music Review
"Great work, great execution." - Modesti
Jeri-Mae G. Astolfi is a Canadian-born pianist whose playing has been lauded as “brilliant” (New Music Connoisseur), “persuasive” (Sequenza21), and “beautiful” (American Record Guide). Her repertoire, ranging from the Renaissance era through the present, clearly affirms her keen interest in new music, which has led her to commission and premiere many new solo and collaborative works—music that has been performed across the nation, featured on live radio broadcasts and commercially-released. Her performances are released on the Innova, Capstone, Ravello and SEAMUS labels.
