Gavin is a beautiful lyrical pianist who has spent so many years working outside Australia that his fame here is not as great as it should be.
"Ahearn is every bit the beautiful, lyrical pianist he’s touted to be; not showy. In fact, he seems a little like a shy A+ student, covering his work to avoid the boy next to him copying. Much akin to Greubner, he tinkles and tinkers away, eking out the deeply affecting & truly extraordinary as if it’s no more challenging than shaving."
