What People are Saying…

“It was wonderful! Their beautiful musicianship (awesome how they each accompanied the other on piano), their choice of repertoire, their presentation of the three tips to becoming good at something, the way they engaged the audience (bringing in the aspect of using the three tips to learn to juggle during this “at-home time” was great). I loved the way they interacted with the audience through the question chat box at the end and how they shared personal information in response to questions. It was a rich, wonderful experience for those students who were able to join the Zoom!

Karen Reed
Music Teacher
Hiawatha Elementary School

“I said this in person, but it is worth repeating: Their last piece was ‘Let It Go’, perfect for this age group. The group gave our students a memory for life- singing ‘Let It Go’ with a string ensemble. The group handled themselves with grace!”

Mary Axworthy
Nurse
Porters Point School

“Wonderful presentation that engaged students, keeping them interested. Mature and courteous presenters-Henry was at ease doing the majority of the talking, speaking clearly, calmly, loud enough with a ‘teacher voice’-impressive for a high school student! Thank you!”

Julie Furniss
Teacher
Hiawatha Elementary School

“What a treat to have such talented local students come to our school! The presentation was enjoyed by students and adults alike! Well done. Thank you!”

Rachel O Donald
Teacher
Hiawatha Elementary School

“Wonderful! Such heartfelt musicianship! Choice of chamber music and solos were perfect. Hungarian Dance, The Waltz, The Swan, The Hegwig’s Theme performed so well and exemplified the contrasts in dynamics, tempo and mood. The pacing of the 45mins. was great. Wonderful, wonderful job! And please come again next year! You are all beautiful musicians and it is so awesome of you to promote your obvious passions of music. Thank you so much!

Karen Reed
Music Teacher
Hiawatha Elementary School

“Thank you for your performance! The concert was well planned rehearsed and engaging. Henry was confident in his speaking. Our students found all of the performers relatable and fun. The pieces of music performed were age appropriate for our elementary school. We would love to host you again next year!”
