New York Times, May 29, 2009 — In time for Yehudi Wyner’s 80th birthday, on Monday, the Bridge label has released a splendid recording of four major works by this respected American composer, including his piano concerto “Chiavi in Mano,” awarded the 2006 Pulitzer Prize for music.

A comprehensive musician, Mr. Wyner is an elegant pianist, a fine conductor, a prolific composer and a revered teacher. His works show a deep understanding of what sounds good and is technically efficient. His musical interests range widely. I have heard him discuss insightfully both Monteverdi’s approach to recitative and Frank Sinatra’s legato singing.
