Reviews
"Chi-Chen Madeleine Tsai.....she had the confidence and security to lead Rossini’s Barber of Seville Overture with economical gestures that made the orchestra really watch — and listen. It was a fine and fun account."
~ Dallas Morning News by Scott Cantrell. Nov. 9th, 2019
"... Tsai tore into the overture to Rossini’s Il barbiere di Siviglia, delivering an exciting performance while still keeping its humorous nature."
