Excerpt:
“There’s an excitement in live competition that is seldom heard in any other kind of performance. Every nerve end is on fire; every competitor is giving the performance of his or her life.” – Richard Rodzinski, president, Van Cliburn Foundation
“Kern has dazzled and seduced audiences with performances marked by volcanically eloquent chord passages and notes that floated with feathery grace.” – Star-Telegram
