""While Jon's technical skills and sight-reading ability are impressive, it is his ability to make the piano “sing” that creates the ultimate duet of piano and voice."

 - Allegro Choirs of Kansas City
 

"Jonathan is a dedicated musician and artist. He is a great colleague and friend, whose hard work and positive attitude inspire those around him. I know Jonathan from our time at the University of Kansas. He excels not only as a soloist at the piano, but also as a collaborator, vocal coach, and teacher. His knowledge of music and its history is very impressive. Do not miss your chance to hear him perform or to work with him!"
