“Thank you so much for organising Saturday. It was absolutely wonderful in all logistical aspects and please also send my huge thanks to the professional musicians for their wonderful singing, playing, conducting and patient, wise teaching to us in the chorus. Looking forward to hopefully to joining the workshops planned for next year.” – Laura Mitchell
“What a wonderful experience it was to sing in both the workshops for this epic work. I had never sung any of the choruses before and I really began to appreciate the beauty of Mendelssohn’s music. Thank you once more for bringing this piece to life, which sadly had been pushed back into the shadows for such a long time. Also Howard’s expert piano accompaniment and Andrew’s fantastic solos brought everything to a magnificent conclusion.” – Richard Evans
“I just want to thank you and Nick so much for the wonderful Handel workshop yesterday. It was so good to spend the day singing with so many dedicated singers and to be able to refresh my acquaintance with Handel’s glorious work under Nick’s expert tuition. I’m really looking forward to the next workshop, whatever and whenever that may be.” – Sue Nott
“A big thank you for organising such a wonderful day last Saturday. Three days later I’m still waking with some of the choruses ringing round my head. It was a real treat to be introduced to a brand new piece (well, at least to me) and I thought everyone rose to the challenge. Just wonderful, thank you.” – Janet Sadler-Noble
“Thank you very much for another very interesting and most enjoyable workshop. Having been involved in the organisation of many such events, I know how much work goes into each one of them and you make it look as if there was nothing to it. Handel’s Dixit Dominus is a difficult piece and yet, we all came away feeling that we really have achieved something and had a lot of fun at the same time. Can you also thank Howard who never ceases to amaze me with his playing. Another one who makes everything look so easy.” – Heide Hughes
