Clara Cernat’s violin is heartrending and visionary, Thierry Huillet’s way of playing as intelligent and analytic as poetic. » Piano – Le Magazine « One stays hanging on their interpretation, which is so true, so full of nuances and good taste... » Diapason « A rare elegance, an ease, and a charm which give you the feeling that you are attending a real feast... » Télérama « An ample and colourful tone, a wilful phrasing : irreproachable functioning of the couple...» Le Monde de la Musique « These sonatas with a wide breast, with a long breath, played with fire by Clara Cernat and Thierry Huillet…» Le Nouvel Observateur « A jewel with two facets : Clara Cernat’s ardent, passionate way of playing and Thierry Huillet’s extreme sensibility give to these masterworks an unusual intensity and dimension... » Classica « Musical couple merge their artistry on a most lofty level... » The Plain Dealer « A musicality, a deepness of thought, a humility towards the works, that usually were the apanage of the great masters of old, of yesteryear... » Classica CLARA THIERRY CERNAT & HUILLET violonist pianist & & violist composer « A musical couple that merge their artistry on a most lofty level...

Scott Nishimoto Vice Chair Rep. Joy San Buenaventura and Members of the Judiciary Committee Submitted By: Stephanie Kendrick, Public Policy Advocate Hawaiian Humane Society, 808-356-2217 RE: Testimony in support of HB2072, HDl: Relating to HRS 711-1109 Thursday, Feb. 22, 2018, 2 p.m., Capitol room 325 The Hawaiian Humane Society supports the passage of House Bill 2072, which would prohibit the use of specific tethering equipment and techniques that are injurious to dogs. However, we oppose the proposed amendments reducing the penalties for a tethering violation. We understand the intent of the penalty change is to compel compliance with the new law without imposing a misdemeanor charge. But as the animal service provider for Oahu, we can attest that our humane investigators already use education when possible to modify behavior. Citations are issued and charges are brought only if attempts at education have failed to change illegal behavior and there is documented evidence of harm to one or more animals. In recent years the Legislature has strengthened animal cruelty penalties to recognize the serious nature of these crimes. These amendments would erode those efforts. We do agree that psychological counseling (page 5, line 13 through page6, line 3) may be a useful tool for rehabilitating animal cruelty offenders. We would support the addition of that option to the existing sentencing guidelines for all animal cruelty cases.
