Patrick Shepherd, Christchurch Mail
“Rakuto Kurano was a star throughout the performance – his composition was a real hit“
Kate Lovell – President, Wanaka Concert Society
“What was truly notable is Rakuto Kurano’s Concerto – as new NZ compositions go this ranks at least with our musical greats – and for my money I have not ever enjoyed a new piece of work more-nor been unable to fault it for its compositional elements of technicality more than matched by its rich beauty of genre”
Bruce, Oamaru

Christine, Invercargill
