We did, indeed, have a wonderful concert. Not only a wonderful concert, but a wonderful weekend! ... Thomas was extremely well received by our audience and by all the participants in our workshop and masterclass. We received many enthusiastic responses from those who attended the concert... [and] have never seen so many CD's sold at a concert as we did on Friday. His playing was both powerful and sensitive, both precise and emotional...

Thomas is a good teacher... [with] all the things he talked about in the session evident in his playing that evening.  Several teachers wished they had brought more of their colleagues because they felt it was so valuable. [Pandolfi] also communicated very well with the young pianists in the masterclass. One of our top pianists commented on what a fine teacher he was. The students very much appreciated his input. [Many] ignored the goodies and spent the break furiously scribbling notes into their scores to help them remember his teaching points. It was the first time... to collaborate with the Music Teachers' Associaton to hold such events, and we couldn't be more delighted with how it turned out, except that we wish there could have been more people there to benefit from it...
