  • What They’re Saying about David Arner


    "SPONTANEOUS SUITES FOR TWO PIANOS... a masterpiece of freely improvised duets... the lyricism and cosmic drive just tumbles out of them like a torrent." KUMN Albuquerque

    "[Out/In the Open] is one of this year's best piano trio offerings." (Downtown Music Gallery)

    "Brilliantly conceived... resplendent piano... an album that holds several magical moments" [Out/In the Open]

    "Arner is an artist of subtlety and depth" (Gapplegate Music review of Porgy/Bess Act 1)

    "He has a pianistic touch that conveys intensity, even when he’s dancing lightly over the keyboard"

    "Arner yielded to an alternative ordering system. He discovered the logic of birds. Last night, he shared the glorious expression of this revelation with his audience."

    "An intense, introspective pianist who methodically constructs sound portraits of shattering dimensions."

    "A performance of unprecedented lucidity and expressive breadth."

    "A virtuoso of the heart and mind, as well as of the hands"

    "As Arner's performances always are, "Live from the Center" is a journey to the outermost reaches of discovery"

    "One of the Valley's most consistently inventive and stimulating musical improvisors."

    "David Arner has done what many have thought undoable."

    "Emphatic yet empathetic"

    "Arner has planted a valuable seed in the improvised piano field of dreams."

    "Extraordinarily rich"

    "His touch was delicate and purposeful, intended for drawing an atmosphere and breaking it apart."

    "An arresting statement of virtuosity... pianistic intelligence"

    "[Arner's] commanding technique and orchestral palette place him in a category of one."
