Reviews

  • "Tonight’s show was centered around the holiday season and the stress that comes with family, friends and holidays. There were five performers on the stage and they were accompanied by the amazing Tyeese Braslavsky at the keyboards."

    Alan Bresloff, Around the Town Chicago

  • "With skillful Musical Direction by Alice Nuteson, and melodic onstage piano accompaniment by the wonderful Tyeese Braslavsky, this revue features 22 of Sondheim’s musical masterpieces."

    Colin Douglas, Chicago Theatre Review

  • "The five singers and their splendid accompanist, Tyeese Braslavsky, delighted the audience with theatre, film, and television songs that loosely tie into themes that come up at holiday times."

  • "The evening would not have been as magical without the piano accompaniment of Tyeese Braslavsky, a classically trained pianist who deftly kept tempo and melody moving along."

    Edie Reese, Around The Town Chicago

  • "Just beautiful! Deeply felt and with the technique to bring it across. I admire your musical maturity and obvious talent!"

    Svetlana Belsky, Piano

  • "Brava on the very dramatic opening of the Chopin variations - very impressive and immediately grabbed the listener's ear. And the following sections had a lovely sense of timing and tenderness."

    Peggy Otwell, University of Wisconsin Milwaukee

  • "You are so invested in your playing! Every gesture and sound reflects the character of the piece and the intentions of the composer! Very few can combine the physical pianistic and artistic parts of a performance to make us want to listen! You did that!"

    Marcia Bosits, Northwestern University
