“I started my own concert series in an effort to present only the finest in classical and jazz entertainment. I heard part of a rehearsal, and knew immediately that I just had to have the Elysian Camerata on one of my programs. Judging from the compliments I am still receiving about their May 22, 2010 performance in Grace Presbyterian Church in Jenkintown, PA, I certainly want to have this awesome ensemble back for a return engagement. I have been to many professional chamber music concerts, and quite frankly, as an experienced musician myself, I was impressed with the nuances, phrasing, and deep interpretations by the Elysian Camerata. When I present this great ensemble once again, I know the program will be just as interesting, balanced and varied as the performance they recently gave on my Regol Concerts series. If you see one of their concerts advertised, I strongly suggest you make it your business to be there!”Renee Goldman, President, Regol Concerts, Inc.

“The Elysian Camerata performed as part of our 2008/2009 season, rendering wonderfully executed and expressively presented music. This was their debut performance in Atlanta before a very musically sophisticated audience. The program was well-received and commented on repeatedly by those "in the know" for weeks afterward. This is a wonderful group of accomplished musicians who contribute greatly to the performance of chamber music; their repertoire is extensive, and they have a great sensitivity and understanding of their music and a great chemistry in relating between themselves while playing. This bond can only be achieved after extensive practice and performing together. It was a privilege having them perform on our series, which is now in its 29th season.”Ivan Millender, Chairman, Cultural Arts Committee,

“When you started playing, I was carried away with waves of pleasure. I floated in the buoyancy of the music, traveling, isolated from the exterior world. The music selection was superb! Perfect for the musicians, the space, the audience, and my ears! Combined with the excellence, balance & dynamics of the musicians… Heaven!I consider myself lucky to have access to musicians of your caliber and cherish the opportunities to hear you play. I look forward to the next concert!”Fred Rosen, regular Elysian audience member
“Splendid! Very professional musicians and delightful choice of pieces!”

"An observer could sense in the concentrated attention of The Elysian Camerata's Pennswood Village audience that the artists were reaching them and touching their hearts. The playing of the Dohnanyi Piano Quintet was intense, passionate, and elegant. The applause from the usually reserved listeners was hearty and lengthy."
