Largely unverifiable, non-notable autobiography. Romanempire (talk) 04:04, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

• Keep. This quick search shows plenty of sources that show notability, and that the article is verifiable. Kevin (talk) 04:12, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

• Comment Is there a standard for concert musicians? They are much more likely to get press than the typical band/band member, but that doesn't mean every single soloist is notable (even if this one did play with Yo-Yo Ma). Thetrick (talk) 04:25, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

• Delete. Most professional orchestra musicians can say that they have played with Yo Yo Ma in one way or another. That doesn't in itself establish notability. It should also be noted that the non-fiction bibliography references have nothing to do with the content of the article. The article in itself reads as if it was lifted straight from a concert program, and is clearly on Wikipedia as a means of self-promotion. It should be deleted.willietanner (talk) 11:45, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

• Comment This page is clearly an autobiography; it's sole maintainer is User:LKaptain. Romanempire (talk) 04:45, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
