“Stunning. The choir is a conduit of the Spirit’s inner work.”
“I loved the concert. You’re an amazing talent and transmitter of joy. I expect to attend all concerts you produce, especially if they are sacred or ecstatic in any way. Your director’s musicology is astounding and the stagecraft = amazing.”
“Very physical response: I actually shivered. I cried. It’s only intermission! The concert was much fun! And the singing magnificent! Thank you!”
“I was deeply touched by the music of your choir.”
