"Thank you, Sam, for your superb playing and delightful programme of music today - some of it familiar, some much less so; sometimes beautifully soft and at other times strikingly enigmatic - but always a joy! Listening to Sam play today left me feeling as though I was on the brink of learning something really profound!" - Maggie McMurray, Artistic Director of Holy Trinity, Gosport
