Messages from lovers of Karen Han's erhu music "Your talent and your beauty BOTH radiated from the stage! It was a lovely evening of music that showcased not only the exquisite talent of your friends, but also your unique gift for being able to play so many different styles of music on a stunning instrument." - Steven Hamblin - Singer "Your playing was spectacular! " - Ruth Charloff - Conductor and Music Director of UCR Orchestra "... what an amazing experience to see and hear you perform, and in the company of such wonderful musicians and collaborators! ... I am so impressed by what you are doing both with your own music as well as in the larger sense, with the concept of increasing the awareness of Asian musical culture through concerts like this and other opportunities." - Randall Larson, Music News & Soundtrax Columnist, Cinescape.com "Wonderful concert!

Watanabe "It was an incredible musical experience for us all. We were fascinated by Karen Han "becoming music..."!.The sounds she creates are unforgettable, she is a magician! " - Katherine Weisberg "I need to congratulate you once more, for a full house successful performance. It was a very nice and well done concert, everyone think you wait too long for this solo concert in Los Angeles area - A ten years recollection! " - Shirley Hsueh "It was truly some of the most beautiful music I have ever heard. It is such a unique combination of East/West. Karen performed solo pieces, but was also accompanied by piano, strings, and a jazz band. She truly is a virtuoso. It's as though she becomes one with her instrument. She and her music are as beautiful to the ear as they are to the eye." - Elizabeth Eastman - Friends of Charles Barnett and Gnuf-Gnuf " ... the way you perform takes me to a place rock and roll cannot. You are a beautiful person and a gifted artist." - Dave Allen, Leader of the Kapakahi softball team "You are an amazing virtuoso, and I really appreciate how you have integrated so many different musical genres into your current repertoire." - James Simcik, Supervising ADR Editor for Films "... your performing was incredible, it's so touch!" - Anne Shih, Director of Bowers Museum "I was not sure what to expect since it was my first time to attend your concert but I surely enjoyed it very much. It was wonderful to hear the fusion of different musical instruments. You are a great and unique artist. Keep it up!" - Mabella F. Bautista "Karen is incredible, her game is so powerful. How can a so tiny lady with a 2 string instrument produce a so beautiful and powerful music. When she starts playing, especially when she perform by herself or with only her piano she does not play, she becomes the music. I was amazed." - Elisabeth Lenain "You looked so lovely ... And your music sound so beautiful.... My daughter said she'll always cherish your music and the wonderful experience in her heart." - Elli Lim "I really enjoyed the show last Saturday. It was a nice program and flowed well with your erhu performance. It was worth driving the 80 miles." - Tuan Phan "... I had a wonderful time--so much talent on that stage." - Leida Erickson, Deputy of Los Angeles County Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich * * * * * *
