"Mari Kotskyy from Hokkaido, an island in Northernmost Japan, was on hand for the premiere of Reminiscence, which highlighted her homesickness upon her emigrating to New York City. As beautiful lyrical passages emerged from the strings, interrupted by moments of dissonant harmonies driven forward by the piano, it ebbed and flowed onwards, each phrase a wave of emotion, each ushering in more moments of bliss, reminiscent of Boston based composer Artur Foote’s piano trios (according to my seatmate Roger Howlett).
