Reviews
"Again, the words brilliant and stunning come to mind when describing this past Sunday's "Carnival of the Animals" concert!...You made many children...and families...very happy." Nancy Schmitt Farkas, Executive Director Northeastern Pennsylvania Philharmonic, 2010
"The talented dou was simply amazing portraying everything from kangaroos to elephants to swans and exotic fishes...If it sounds like Friday evening's performance was just about as good as a Philharmonic performance can be, that's because it was." The Scranton Times, 2004
