New York Times, Oct. 25th:
THE CONCERTO IS WRITTEN WITH IMMENSE DEMANDS UPON THE VIRTUOSO'S POWERS AND THESE DEMANDS WERE MET WITH OVERWHELMING BRILLIANCY BY MME. MERO.


New York American, Oct. 25th:
NO WONDER THAT HER VIRTUOSO PERFORMANCE, BUOYANT, VIGOROUS, ENERGETIC, ALIVE WITH PHYSICAL VERVE AND TEMPERAMENTAL ARDOR AROUSED SUCH TUMULTUOUS APPLAUSE.  MME. MERO IS HEARD NONE TOO OFTEN.


Philadelphia Ledger, Feb. 6th:
SUBTLETY AND DELICACY, TEMPERANCE AND RETICENCE WERE AT HER COMMAND AS WELL AS THE PERCUSSIVE THUNDER AND LIGHTNING.  AT EVERY HALTING POINT THE TUMULT OF APPLAUSE EXCEEDED EVEN THE MIGHTY VOICE EVOKED FROM THE PIANO.  RARELY IS AN AUDIENCE SO DEMONSTRATIVE.


Philadelphia Inquirer, Feb. 6th:
TO MAKE THE PIANO SING TO THE FULL MEASURE OF CHOPIN'S DIVINE IMAGINATION CONSTITUTES ONE OF THE ESSENTIALS OF BEING A GREAT ARTIST.  MME. MERO NEED FEAR NO COMPETITION EITHER AS AN EXECUTANT NOR AS A POET.

GREATER THAN ANY WOMAN PIANIST I CAN REMEMBER.

UNDISPUTED LEADING PIANIST OF HER SEX.


COMPLETE SUCCESS EVERYWHERE
YOLANDA
MERO

Worcester Telegram, Nov. 5th:
MME. MERO NO LONGER DEMANDS ANALYSIS OF HER POWERS.  SHE IS THE ACCOMPLISHED WHO COMBINES MASTERY OF HER INSTRUMENT WITH THAT DELICACY OF TOUCH WHICH IS TOO OFTEN LOST.  LAST NIGHT SHE BROUGHT OUT ALL THE MELTING LOVELINESS OF THE LISZT CONCERTO.  PERHAPS A MAN MIGHT DO AS WELL, BUT THE FACT REMAINS THAT A MAN SELDOM DOES.  THIS WOMAN HOLDS UNDISPUTED PLACE AS LEADING PIANIST OF HER SEX IN THIS COUNTRY.

STEINWAY PIANO.



AVAILABLE ENTIRE SEASON 1921-1922




Boston Derald, Jan. 6th:
WE DO NOT REMEMBER SO PLEASING A PERFORMANCE OF THE WEBER RONDO SINCE THE DAYS OF THE INCOMPARABLE VLADIMIR DE PACHMAN.


New York Journal, Nov. 23rd:
MME. MERO PLAYED WITH A VIGOR OF SPIRIT, A BRILLIANCE OF TECHNICAL MASTERY AND A SWEEP AND BEAUTY OF INTERPRETATION OF THE MUSIC IN HAND SUCH AS TO STIR HER HEARERS TO ENTHUSIASM.  ALTOGETHER IT WAS PIANO PLAYING OF THE FIRST ORDER.


Detroit News, Nov. 20th:
MME. MERO GAVE A REMARKABLE INTERPRETATION OF THE TSCHAIKOWSKY SECOND CONCERTO.  HER TONE IS POWERFUL AND EXCEPTIONALLY RICH, AND HER TOUCH CARESSING IN LEGATO PASSAGES.  WHEN THE TEMPO QUICKENS AND SHE SWEEPS INTO SWIFT RUNS AND EMBELLISHMENTS, HER TONE IS FAIRLY GLITTERING.


Detroit Free Press, Nov. 20th:
MERO IS A PIANIST OF STUNNING POWER: SHE HAS DIGITAL DEXTERITY OF UNUSUAL ORDER, HER RUNS ARE ESPECIALLY CLEAN CUT AND OF SUCH FLOWING ELEGANCE THAT THEY COMPEL ATTENTION.

Mme. Mero makes records for The Artrio Angelus Piano Exclusively.
