I was at the
performance
in Barrow -
it was superb.
I’m 13
years old and
went with my
grandparents,
my mum and my
younger sister
and we all thoroughly
enjoyed it -
the scenery
was beautiful,
the costumes
lovely and the
music excellent". |
| Steph.
of Barrow In
Furness |
| "
the standard
of playing was
fantastic!!
The set and
costumes were
beautiful!" |
| L.G.
of Tewkesbury |
| "
It is a very
long time since
my wife and
I enjoyed such
a wonderful
musical treat.
Our warmest
thanks for enriching
our evening
with such a
virtuoso performance" |
| J.W.
of Blackwood. |
| "What
can I say! Another
brilliant Locrian
evening. Music
played to the
perfection with
which it was
written, the
anecdotes, the
humour. How
do you do it?" |
| S.D.
of Bexhill |
| "The
concert was
fantastic. From
your introduction
we knew we were
in for an entertaining
evening but
didn;t appreciate
how instructive
and inspiring
it would be" |
| J.L.
Tewksbury |
| "
Beethoven The
Man & His
Music was a
truly uplifting
experience.
I couldn’t
believe the
evening passed
so quickly"
Patrick Lannigan’s
as Beethoven
was a masterpiece.
The music of
course was wonderful" |
| V.L.
of Chesterfield |
| "
your concert
was superb.
It sounded ‘right’
in that it was
played as I
imagined it
would be in
the 18th century,
and your comment
about enjoying
the evening
and being caught
up with the
music had a
profound effect
on the audience
- it ‘gave
them permission’
to do the same
and be caught
up with you." |
| P.M.
of Gravesend |
| "
I was mesmerised
by the music
and so taken
by how much
you all obviously
enjoyed playing" |
| N.M.
of Falkirk |
| "
It was the first
live classical
concert that
my wife and
myself had been
to and definitely
will not be
the last" |
| K.R.
of Falkirk |
| "
I took my father
to your concert
and just wanted
you to know
what a fantastic
evening we had.
The standard
of your musicians
and their performance
was breathtaking.
The introductions
showed a genuine
talent for comedy
and carried
us through the
evening beautifully.
It was a magical
evening - one
for the book" |
| S.T.
of Aldershot. |
| "
my wife and
I were privileged
to be at you
concert. What
an evening!
We both thought
it was the best
concert we have
ever attended.
It was laid
back yet completely
professional
and it was obvious
you all enjoyed
making music
together" |
| B.F.
of Yeovil |
| "
just to say
how much I enjoyed
‘Carols
By Candlelight’
I first saw
you last year
and was completely
bowled over.
What makes it
so special is
the unique blend
of superb musical
skill, humour
and the obvious
enjoyment that
you all get
from playing
your music.
The whole thing
is set off to
perfection by
the scenery
and costumes" |
| S.H
of Hastings |
| "
what a wonderful,
wonderful evening,
I left the theatre
feeling uplifted,
light- hearted
and desperate
to experience
the evening
all over again.
Your humour
is magnificent,
the feeling
between everyone
on stge is electric
and the music
is out of this
world" |
| C.R.
of Norwich |
| "
not only is
the music superb
of course, but
your own introductions
and anecdotes
are witty, amusing
and entertaining
and add to the
enjoyment of
the whole" |
| S.B.
of Beverley |
| "
your engaging
manner helps
to debunk the
theory that
serious music
can only be
played, and
listened to
by serious people.
i think you
have a seriously
commercial product." |
| A.B.
of Bury St Edmunds |
| "we
enjoyed your
programme so
much. You are
a delightful
and talented
group" |
| B.C.
of Lincoln |
| "
Having come
back from my
English friends
in Lincoln,
I still remember
that wonderful
night in the
theatre. It
was so refreshing,
I very felt
relaxed in a
way I would
not find in
my own country" |
| R.B.
of Denmark |
| "
I just wanted
to say how much
I enjoyed your
concert in Bexhill.
It made me realise
how beautiful
Mozart’s
music is and
how infinitely
intricate and
subtle. Having
each piece introduced
with a few words
about it seemed
in keeping with
the intimacy
of chamber music." |
| E.P.
of Bexhill |
| "
thank you for
an enthralling
couple of hours
of beautiful
music, played
by superb musicians.
Absolute enjoyability" |
| W.P.
of Gravesend |
| "
I, my wife,
and friends
came away totally
ranting about
it, it went
down as one
of the best,
if not the best
concerts we
have ever seen.....keep
up the good
cause of playing
and promoting
the beautiful
world of classical
music..." |
| M.B.
Royal Leamington
Spa |
| "
PLEASE COME
BACK AGAIN..........
It was one of
the best evenings
I have spent
for a long time
- good humour
and enormous
talent! Thank
you for entertaining
us so well" |
