Clarke's Reviews

5 out of 5

Clark and his music were very well received by our visitors and helpers alike. His friendly personality endeared him to our hearts. His music was super too:-)

Watching Clarke perform Vivaldi's Four Seasons was invigorating. He plays the pieces with an effortless but confident manner. Yet his energetic performance is both captivating and addictive which is a wonderful rarity in the classical world and most certainly a breath of fresh air!

An incredibly focussed performance of Bruch's 1st violin concerto. Technical proficiency of the highest order coupled with his characteristic flair for performance made me think of a classical Freddie Mercury!
