 "Pianist Marion Scott brought on the early romanticism of Mendelssohn’s cycle, Songs without Words. The Eastman and Juilliard graduate captured the lyricism and power of the six “songs” from Book 1. His skilled touch ranged from the gentle to the stormy as the score demanded, allowing each audience member to supply the missing words if, as and when desired." -Paul D.
