Wendy Sayvetz
Vocalist


"What links the songs is Ms. Sayvetz's sweet-sounding, otherworldly voice which is reminiscent of Joan Baez and Judy Collins..."

Andrew Schulman
8-String Guitarist

 





"Eloquent...He played with sensitivity, a graceful introspection, careful workmanship and an ear for timbral shading."

The New York Times

"Schulman gave us a performance which was freewheeling, musically delightful, and technically dazzling."
