“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.”
"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
