“José is not only a remarkable talent but is a person with exemplary character. His contributions to our country would be enormous musically, scholastically, and culturally.”
“José不仅是一个具有非凡天赋的音乐家，更是一个模范人物。他对于我们国家在音乐、学术和文化上的贡献将是十分巨大的。”
——Ahmad Jamal (美国爵士名人堂钢琴家)
“José Manuel’s association with Steinway & Sons has been greatly valued by me and by my colleagues. He is a highly gifted and creative pianist whose love of music and dedication to it are readily apparent to all who hear him perform. Widely regarded by his colleagues as one of the most dynamic young pianists on the music scene today, he has performed throughout North and South America, and his performances have been filmed and broadcast.”
“我和我的同事高度认可José Manuel带给施坦威的巨大的价值。他是一个极具天赋和创造性的钢琴家，所有听过他音乐会的听众，都可以很自然地感受到他对音乐的挚爱与虔诚。他被同行们广泛的认可为当今乐坛上最有活力的年轻钢琴家之一。他已经完成在整个北美和南美巡演，这些表演已被录制和播放。”
——Peter B. Goodrich (施坦威公司 前全球副总裁)
“José Manuel’s brand of musicianship is rare: a pianist who is as much at home in the classical repertoire as in the jazz and Latin genres.”
“José Manuel的音乐品牌是非常罕见的：作为一个钢琴家，他可以在古典钢琴乐，爵士乐和拉丁流派中自如切换。”
——Carlos Urbaneja Silva (委内瑞拉钢琴家)
“José is an excellent pianist who has been able to successfully combine elements of European music with American Jazz and the rhythms of Afro-Caribbean music. He is one of the few contributing members of the Atlanta musical community who possesses such unique talents. As such he is able to bridge the musical gaps between our cultures and consequently enriching the musical life of Atlanta.”
“José是一位出色的钢琴家，他可以将美国爵士乐和非洲-加勒比音乐的节奏，成功地与欧洲音乐元素结合。他是亚特兰大的音乐社区少有的，拥有该特质的人才之一。他不仅弥合了我们文化中的音乐差距，同时也不断地丰富了亚特兰大地区的音乐生活。”
——Gordon Vernick (爵士小号手和音乐教育家)
“José Manuel is an outstanding performing artist and composer.”
“José Manuel 是一位杰出的表演艺术家和作曲家。”
——Fazil Say (土耳其钢琴家)
“I find myself holding my breath when I hear José play. Every note is charged with meaning. He approaches the music with an obvious sensitivity, an endearing humility and a disconcerting dynamic sense. From the up tempos redolent with life to the beautifully understated ballads, Jose’s playing is a truly gratifying experience.”
“当我听José演出的时候，我发现自己情不自禁地屏住了呼吸。他演奏的每一个音符都被赋予了无限的深意。他对音乐的理解，带有明显的细腻和敏感性，因挚爱而谦卑，并伴有令人紧张的律动。从如生命一样节节攀升的高昂的节奏，到民谣般低调而美丽的旋律，听José演奏确实是一次心旷神怡的经历。”
——Ilona Knopfler (美国歌手 )
