Dear Monica! […] I was listening carefully to your performance, which I have enjoyed very much. I do think that you are extremely good harpist, and very sensitive musician. Your selection of the works you put on the CD, demonstrating your fine taste and musicality. Congratulations!!! As to my Toccata, I was very pleased with your interpretation, it was nicely built up, with beautiful colors. I just hope that one this days you will challenge yourself with my sonatas for harp solo, as well as with my concerti. I wish you all the best, lots of luck in your career, hope to see you sometime in the future, I remain Sincerely yours
