Chieko Konishi Louie Flute Recital Review

Lowen Piano House,

Program includes Sonatas by Poulenc, Prokofieff, Poem by Griffes,
Promenades by Martinu.
Lowen Piano House has graciously provided the venue.

Comments from Audience
The program was an ambitious selection of 20th century works. The capacity audience was treated to dazzling display of virtuosity that filled the hall.
Mrs.Konishi-Loiue possesses an astonishing command of the flute projecting both flourish and sensitive line with mastery and confidence. Mrs.Konishi-Louie is presenting her native Japan where, no doubt, she has left behind a devoted following. I speak for all in attendance last Saturday
evening that we look forward to her next presentation.
