Testimonials

"It was when I heard Mie in concert that I realised here was someone who could make a harpsichord as expressive as a piano. I'd owned a harpsichord for many years but I could never make it sing. Lessons with Mie have transformed my harpsichord playing. She has the gift of encouragement blended with exacting standards. This gave me very clear direction but also fired my enthusiasm so my technique improved immeasurably." (Ms L.Clark)

"Mie accompanied me on the harpsichord for my Diploma final recital. It was a real treat to work with her. She was wonderfully supportive and so helpful when discussing performance decisions such as ornamentation and tempo. She always watched and anticipated, and struck a balance between performance suggestions and allowing my interpretation to come through. She had great insight into the music and her suggestions made a great difference to the ensemble and interpretation. She inspired confidence on the day, and it was wonderful to perform with such a stylish harpsichordist and sensitive accompanist." (Ms N.Meredith)
