San Francisco Chronicle Review (7/19/09)...by Joshua Kosman, Chronicle Music Critic "Come to it with a free and fiery attitude, as flutist Maria Tamburrino did during Thursday's opening program of the Midsummer Mozart Festival, and the results are electrifying. ...Tamburrino, a festival stalwart for many years, tackled the G-Major Flute Concerto with fervor and pizzaz, illuminating Mozart's graceful but oddly moody melodies with a sure hand; the alluring slow movement sounded especially poignant." View a short video of a segment of the 2nd movement, Adagio ma non troppo, from this performance to the right.
