"Few words are required to describe the recent performance of lyric soprano Victoria Wefer and pianist Carmela Sinco. As a matter of fact I believe that I can describe it in only two words. Absolute talent! Even fewer words are required, indeed one word will suffice. Perfection!...
...Together these two women became one in a transition of substance into pure energy...
...Sinco enjoys a career as a pianist, composer and educator in the New York City area. Though her list of accomplishments is far too great than time allows writing about, she has performed with classical singers in music festivals in Nice, France; Barcelona, Spain; St. Petersburg, Florida; and Montpelier, Vermont.
In this most recent recital Carmela performed her original composition set to a poem by Dorothy Parker titled “The Little Old Lady in Lavender Silk” to the delight of the Audience.
During the recital Sinco also took to the stage to offer a solo performance of Francisco Buencamino Sr.’s work titled “Harana.” Playing without the need of sheet music Carmela played the work as though in a trance. Her arms effortlessly flowed across the keyboard in a way that made any observer believe that she was possessed by a spirit of music.
But it was in fact simply the well trained and skilled accomplishment of a young lady who has so well rehearsed the work that it has become a part of who she is. Yes, she has the ability to transform into the music becoming one with the instrument. Like a Zen Master of music Carmela had become the music..."
