Wendy Sayvetz
Vocalist


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

The Princeton Packet

Andrew Schulman

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

The New York Times
