"Talon’s two utterly independent hands and acuity in rhythmic pointing stresses line over mass evoking memories of Josef Hoffman's 1937 legendary Golden Jubilee performance."

“Talon Smith is an astonishing pianist! He is one of the most talented pianists I have had the privilege to work with. His gifts are complete: Virtuosity, artistry, musicianship, and creativity.”

—William Grant Nabore, Artistic Director, Oberlin-Como Piano Academy

"The young virtuoso placed his technical mastery at the service of poetry and the singing line. Vladimir Horowitz famously said, 'There is no shortage of pianists, only a shortage of composers.' In the new 24 Preludes by Talon Smith (Op. 1)—an astonishing collection of pieces with varying styles and emotions—one had a renewed hope for the future of new music, music that speaks to the hearts of the common men and women, unencumbered by the demands of academia. " - TRUMAN WANG, CLASSICAL VOICE
