Review by Keith Kreitman
​
From the San Mateo Journal of violinist Stephen Waarts and pianist Michael Davidman when they were 11 years old performing Mozart's Sonata for Violin and Piano in B-flat major, K.454 in Stent Family Hall as part of the Koret Young Artists program at the 2008 Music at Menlo Festival in California.
“Violinist Steven Waarts and Michael Davidman … two 11-year-old prodigies, and I rarely apply that term, and never loosely … the best of the best.” (San Mateo Journal).
