'Performances full of imagination, daring, and confidence'

—Michael Slatkin, Assistant Principal Horn, Israel Philharmonic Orchestra.

'Imaginative and superb musicians, Gavriella (Horn), Tirzah (Cello) and Ortal (Violin) Goldman display technical and emotional skills as well as undisputed artistry. Their music (mostly arranged by Ortal Goldman) was beautifully played throughout, while the sisters added a further string to their bows by acting at the same time. They were convincing, charming and wonderfully funny. Such versatility! . . . A show which is sheer delight! This is a show not to be missed.' 5 STARS

—ConcertBuzz about Piano Recital (Piano Not Included)

'I went to see this show, not knowing quite what to expect. I was intrigued by the title, Piano Recital (Piano Not Included). Indeed, much of the music in this show is from the Classical and Jazz Piano repertoire. There are a number of facets in this show, a couple of different threads in the story: there is the story about the pianist not arriving in time to perform with the other chamber musicians and how the three musicians, Gavriella (French horn), Ortal (Violin) and Tirzah (Cello) Goldman cope with the situation. In addition, there are a number of 'vignettes' which are extremely funny, some more subtle than others and some which are almost slapstick in their humour. The Musicians are extremely talented and versatile; they are also convincing actresses and are full of fun and good humour. The polished craft of all the performers is undisputed. This show is entertaining on many different levels; you don't have to be a music-lover to enjoy it. It is a show for everyone. Don't miss Piano Recital (Piano Not Included). I guarantee you that you will enjoy every moment, as did I!' 5 STARS

—Michael Slatkin, Assistant Principal Horn, Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, about Gavriella Goldman.

'. . . a fine horn player with a beautiful tone . . . a talented musician.'

—Mordechai Rechtman, Principal Bassoonist, Israel Philharmonic Orchestra 1946-1991, Professor of Music, Rubin Academy, Tel Aviv University, about Gavriella Goldman.

'Tirzah is a fine cellist who is totally at one with her instrument. Her technique is easy and flowing but has an intensity of passion when required. She is able to produce many colours and moods on her chosen instrument. Her playing always reflects the mood of the music perfectly.'

—Judith Dobbie, Cellist, Australia, about Tirzah Goldman.

'Ortal plays the violin in a manner which is reminiscent of masters such as Heifetz, Menuhin and Zuckerman. She adds her own personality to an instrument which is played by many but mastered by few. She is a young master of her instrument. Her performances are always exciting and vibrant.'

—Eliyahu Shulman, Concert Master, Israel Chamber Orchestra, about Ortal Goldman.
