one of the
leading Italian pianists of her generation. An
official accompanist at Trinity College of Music,

artistry and excellent motivation. Her elegant and stylish
awareness, fine command of her instrument and exemplary integrity in
her playing are matched by a warmth and charming personality. Emma has

musicianly authority. Yonty Solomon
