SELECTED QUOTES FROM REVIEWS OF BRAGIN'S PERFORMANCES:

  • Bragin spent much of her career as a college chemistry professor, but she is a complete artist of the piano. She and Sandra Armstrong Groce, the group's violist, gave an arresting performance of Rebecca Clarke's Sonata for Viola and Piano (1919).
    - The Charleston Gazette

  • ... her poetic, intense account of the third movement [of Chopinís Sonata No. 3 in B Minor] still resonates deeply. The detailed attention she paid to its unfolding structure suggested some overlap between her two fields [music and chemistry].
    - The Washington Post

  • ... a fabulous performance ... that had everything: technical security, wit, the communication of sheer joy in playing. It was fully professional in every way except that the player makes her living in chemistry not music.
    - Dallas Morning News

  • . . . an extraordinarily cohesive Chopin Sonata in B minor - a work some noted pianists don't knit together as convincingly or even play as cleanly as she does.
    - The Miami Herald
