Choo Choo Hu

Musician. Writer. Helicopter dog mom.

Pianist Choo Choo Hu gave us a sensitive, grounded performance of the piece. My attention was especially drawn to her rendition of the Chopin quote itself…I found hers to be more natural, more flowing than older interpretations, as if, for her generation, this piece was already an old, integrated friend to her repertoire and history. Perhaps the lesson here is that, from our perspective, as the music grows older and the performers grow younger, the musical renditions are revitalized, providing us with more warmth, depth, and comfort. My sincere compliments to the musician, whose performance confidence seemed second-nature, just a breezy afterthought born of keen training and extreme talent. – Howard Wershil, EarRelevant
