Admiring words from Russian listeners, students of Professor Tatiana Kholostova from the Baltic State Technical University in St. Petersburg.  Many of them came up to me (Ludmilla) after the concerts at the House of International Collaboration ("Dom Druzhby") and at the Composers Association, and told me that they LOVED Aaron's guitar playing.  Here are two written ones, in Russian (my translation is provided below)

…..   Сказать Вам спасибо за приобщение к культуре. Благодаря Вам я первый раз сходил (на) концерт классической музыки. Не ожидал такого впечатления!  Это превзошло все мои ожидания!

"I would like to thank you so much for opening the culture for me.  Thanks to you, [Professor Kholostova], I, for the first (!) time in my life went to the concernt of calssical music.  I did not expect anything like that!  It surpassed all my expectations!
