“Claire Chase is the real thing. She is a beautiful player with an amazing dramatic range, moving effortlessly from intimate, buttery smooth murmurings to powerhouse intensity in nothing flat. A true artist in music from all periods, that she often turns her artistry towards the music of our times is a gift to composers everywhere, for which we are grateful; without hesitation, I recommend her to music lovers everywhere.”

"Claire is one of the most exciting musicians I know. She brings unique gifts to her music making: all-too-rare old-fashioned musicianship, sparkling facility with recent music, and an almost clairvoyant ability to spot and penetrate the masterpieces of the future. Her playing brims with equal measures of virtuosity, joy, and intellect: a great career lies ahead for her."

“…stunning throughout, flutist Claire Chase is absolutely riveting, her voice and flute blending so completely as to be indistinguishable at key moments."
