"...a violinist with a sound technique...his musicianship is acute and mature... We are in Greening's debt."- BOSTON GLOBE
"...Greening's performance was like a fireworks display...each number exceeded the first in beauty and eloquence. One witnessed the soul of a great musician as he gave each phrase and amazing dept of feeling."
