Reviews:
"“Winter’s stories” shows off a unique talent one able to balance the real and the surreal. " - Beach Sloth
"All fans of sound art influenced by neo-classical will be pulled in by this hauntingly unique release." - Foreign Accents
"Connecting the various melodies of life with a series of rich sound arrangements, ‘Winter’s Stories’ is an evocative album that rings with a deep sense of wonder. An album made for quiet moments of deep thought and warm reflection, Nhung Nguyen has created a wonderfully immersive listen, distilling the purest form of sound into a delicate seven track triumph." - Anthem Review
"There is a narrative here somewhere but it’s a loose one, guided only by the listener and their state of mind. In that sense Winter’s Stories is a perfect summer record. We only appreciate the beauty of winter when it has gone and the sun is blazing down and listening to the artful and beautiful neo-classical sounds of a simple acoustic piano on this occasion is a journey of the soul in itself."- srczmagazine
