| November 2006 | Solo Recital and Masterclass, Portland State University, Portland, Oregon "I had the pleasure of hearing Regina Yeh give a recital at Portland State U. in November of 2006. It was a stunning recital from start to finish. Her playing is imaginative and heartfelt. She plays with style and flair and always with a tasteful ear. I was impressed with the ease in which she played the most difficult technical passages. Regina is a professional pianist in every regard. I felt very lucky to be at the concert. It's one I won't forget." - Linda Barker - Concert Pianist, former faculty University of Portland |

It's amazing how just the tiniest angle or release of the hands make so much difference and how the whole body coordinates and supports each change. The part about the repetition, the discipline, the precision, perfection and finally the "release" is almost mind boogling. You've given me a gift in learning to fine tune my listening skills. I am most grateful to you for the education and the pleasure." - Shirley, audience member |

EWPA concert, February 9th 2007
"The evening was a stunning success. The music was beautiful, especially Paul's Piano Quintet, and the performances were at the highest level. Also there was a large audience, and I had not seen most of them at anything at UW School of Music before. I find it wonderful when new music manages to be both technically perfect in construction and heartfelt and inspiring, all at the same time." - Dr. Gloria Swisher
"a triumph of adventurous programming and superb performances....wonderfully balanced! I was honored to be its first composer-in-residence. Congratulations for mounting this challenging and extremely worthwhile festival!" - Paul Chihara
