About Daniel Glover, piano Pianist Daniel Glover has performed in 42 states and 25 countries throughout Europe, Asia, South America and the Caribbean. The San Jose Mercury News said, "Glover is an incisive, exciting, and apparently tireless player...a natural for hyper-virtuosic challenge." He has been hailed for his "extraordinary technique, analytical understanding and determined phrasing from the first to the last bar." (Sdhessische Post, Germany) The San Francisco Classical Voice remarked, "Brilliant, tender, whimsical, sparkling...Glover brought everything together into a well balanced, evenly measured medium." "The elegance and civility of Glover's approach was musically unimpeachable." "Dazzling...golly can he play! I kept expecting smoke to emerge from the interior of the instrument...a flawless sense of Lisztian style incorporating its emotional depth."
