Please accept my congratulations on an inspiring and thrilling recital on Tuesday evening. It was such a pleasure to listen to the three of you work so beautifully together to create an amazing tapestry of sound. Each one of you gave so much energy and expression to each piece and the combination of instruments is just perfect.

I loved hearing your interview on Sunday. You were terrific speaker. And your flute pieces were excellent and well chosen. I liked how you brought out instruments for people to play. In a few minutes, I will send you photos and the revised flyer. Thanks so much for doing this. Everyone enjoyed it.

WOWSERS!!!! It was FANTASTIC!!!!
“It was a great evening. I got a charge out of the flute player. Most of the jazz flute players I hear, are delinquent Sax players. She has a real solid sound and technique.”
