Glenn Tinturin, classical guitarist, gave his first concert at the age of ten as guest soloist with the Santa Monica Symphony Orchestra at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium. Ever since, critics and audiences alike have raved.

"Everything he played was touched by genuinely sensitive musical comprehension. And, commendably, his fleet-fingered facility was not once forced to serve strident and/or gimmicky vulgarities. Prevailing were Chopinesque rubato put to poetic uses, and a warm singing tone."

LOS ANGELES TIMES

"The audience of nearly 5,000 seemed to enjoy everything, expecially the Rodrigo excerpt -- so very sad and exquisitely poignant -- and the genius of Tinturin so haunting that an encore was essential."

REDLANDS EVENING TELEGRAM

"A performer of skill and much musical sensitivity. Played with excellent technical mastery. The guitar was poetically played. Tinturin evoked surprising depths of tone from the guitar as he traversed a magnificent musical landscape in utterly absorbing and telling fashion."

MONTEREY PENINSULA HERALD

"Tinturin demonstrated a formidable technique and a sure feel for the mood of the music. The music nicely demonstrated the soloist's clear articulation of individual notes, powerful chordal work and dazzling passage work."

PALO ALTO TIMES

The Tinturin Duo, Glenn Tinturin, classical guitar and Noëlle Compinsky Tinturin, piano, has been performing new works written especially for them, as well as familiar classics artistically arranged and performed with sensitivity, charm and flair. Audiences rave about their fresh approach to the music and their ability to create a unique blend of two instruments sounding as one. The Tinturin Duo has concertized extensively throughout California as well as Europe.

"A remarkable display of virtuosity and musicianship...played with style and comprehension, great sensitivity and elan."

CARMEL CLASSIC GUITAR SOCIETY

"The couple demonstrated thair abundant talent with grace and elegance, energy and control."

DAILY SUNDIAL

MOUNTAIN NEWS

Noëlle Compinsky Tinturin, pianist, has performed as soloist, accompanist, in orchestras, and as a chamber music artist extensively throughout California.

"Tinturin held her audience spellbound. At times her fingers seemed to caress the ivories, then slowly work themselves into a passionate 'doigtee,' then again fast and furious, but always accurate."
