J. Peter Bergman praises James Benjamin Rodgers and Jillian Zack for their performance of Exiled: The Evolution of Kurt Weill in his review for The Berkshire Edge
“When Zack plays these pieces, they instantly take us to those places and those years. It is as though she were born to play his work and I wish that Lenya had lived long enough to hear her play these Weill masterpieces. “
“This (Rodgers) is a very talented man embarking on a journey of his own as he charts Weill’s evolution through countries and times, steering with his music the course of an enormous true love: composition.”
“You have to marvel at the ease with which this artist (Zack) changes the scope of her pianistics.”
