"…Earlier on the same stage, the Adam Birnbaum Trio was similarly posed the problem of keeping an audience's attention in threatening weather conditions. This accessible group had no trouble doing so. Though his renown is modest in comparison with Hancock's, Birnbaum has had a loyal local following since he won the Cole Porter Fellowship of the sponsoring American Pianists Association in 2004. He peppered his varied set with a few flavorful originals."
