• Hye-yun played one Nutcracker performance and did a fantastic job in an extremely challenging condition. She is a consummate professional with excellent rhythm and technique. I highly recommend her for any engagement. Thank you Hye-yun. -- Andrew M, Durham, NC, 12/13/2009

• Hye-yun Chung Bennett was great. She played for the cocktail hour prior to my daughters wedding. Many of my guests made comments to me during and after the cocktail hour about how much they enjoyed her music and how it added that special touch to the affair. I would definately hire her again and strongly reccommend her. -- James S, Virginia Beach, VA, 9/25/2010
• She was a pleasure to work with. She plays beautiful music, and also can be quite the comedian. She exemplifies professionalism and is of obvious high character, and displayed a great work ethic. -- Terrance W, Virginia Beach, VA, 11/19/2011
• It was such a treat to have Ms. Bennet perform for our Christmas Party of about 180. She is an entertaining and extremely talented professional. In addition to her classical pieces, she was able to add lively Christmas tunes which had some guests singing along. The other guests also truly enjoyed minglng with her during her breaks. We would love to have her perform with her harp at a smaller event. -- Kathy O, Virginia Beach, VA, 12/17/2011
