Audience Accolades

We recently began soliciting our audiences to leave their written comments during intermission and after our performances. The following is what they shared!

The music is awesome!
​Love it!"

Excellent work!
​Played so well!"

I have to admit I like the old standard classical guitar best, but Paul, you get sounds and rhythms out of the guitar that I never knew were in there! Debra, what you do on the flute is amazing! And the two of you together!!!"

I am so glad I got to hear the World Premiere of (the alto flute & guitar arrangement) Farlorn Alemen. Loved the alto flute. Great piece and sad story."
