Red River Radio Spotlight: Shreveport Symphony season finale  |  interview

Arts Notes – Williamsburg Symphony Orchestra Virginia Gazette review
“Music director Michael Butterman’s balance between both reduced strings and full orchestra and Vieaux was the absolute, most total perfection of balance one could ask for. It simply could not get any better. Bravo to all…Butterman and company beautifully shaped the work (Brahms’ Symphony No. 3), its lines and sensations captivating attention, checking all the boxes for cohesion, clarity, blended sound, truly fine playing and nothing-left-to-be-desired excellence.”
