"I had the great pleasure of performing and working closely with the talented
young musicians of Techne Music 2014 in Vivaldi's Four Seasons. The ease in which
we rehearsed this work gave ample proof to the wonderful leadership of Tim Schwarz
and his faculty in developing the future musicians of tomorrow. I can't wait for
my next visit!"

"When I was growing up in the Lehigh Valley, I had to travel to either
Philadelphia or New York for chamber music. I am so happy that now, in Bethlehem,
serious students of chamber music have access to the level of instruction they
deserve: right here at home. Thanks to the efforts of friend and colleague Timothy
Schwarz, Techne Music brings passionate students and world-class faculty together
to be inspired and enriched by the great art that is chamber music."
