David Finckel on my recent Kings Place Concert
What a great pleasure it was for me to work with David Finckel.
I’m really touched that he made the following comment:
Performing as part of the Josephine Knight and Friends ensemble was both a pleasure and an inspiration.
Both her artistry and generosity of spirit shine through, and she creates a palpable, natural chemistry between audience and musicians.
I hope someday to make another contribution towards one of her well-conceived and beautifully executed projects.”
