“… his Four Preludes, a gentle, introspective set in an accessible eclectic style that draws on Minimalism—the repeating left-hand staccato figure in the second piece and the ostinato that accompanies the lyrical melody in the third—as well as hints of a Romantic salon style and ruminative jazz.”
“Mr Gallagher....discovered a winning formula in presenting a brief performance of music followed by open dialogue...”
“Le pianiste fascine par la clairvoyance du jeu, son éloquence, sa solidité, sa maîtrise parfaite des équilibres et des contrastes. Sa formidable maîtrise délivre un remarquable travail centré sur la cohérence et le sens.”
“There is much to learn from Mr. Gallagher’s intrepid approach to organizing his own concert life.”
“For as the fingers of Kimball Gallagher, classical pianist from New York, flew over the keys, it was not just rapturous melody that filled the air but also a musical rendition of the names of two ragpickers.”
