I didn’t get chance to find you after your performance and my speech on Saturday – sorry. What an amazing performance that was – the whole room loved it and it really was the surprise I was hoping for. Your performance was the extra edge and value I wanted to bring to the event and it certainly did that. I’m so grateful that the weather didn’t affect the event too. I shall never forget Kitty’s face when you came and sang to her and she went all shy! Or the interaction with our friend Steve around the room, that was hilarious. I thought there would be a few chaps who would interact and you hit it perfectly. Many people asked for your details, so I shall pass them on. Thank you again so very much. You made the event extra special. I hope you had a restful Sunday. All the very best, Jodi

Dear Sara, The Ruby Wedding was a spectacular success, thanks to you, Christopher, Clementine and her colleagues. Thank you very much for your help finding such wonderful musicians at short notice; the evening was absolutely made by their fantastic performance! I just really wanted to thank you separately too for getting me out of a hole with only two weeks to go!

Christopher, Thank you very much for your stunning performance at my parents’ Ruby Wedding Anniversary last night. It was even better than I could have hoped for and my parents loved it too! I spent a long time trying to find someone to perform Rachmananov and most professional pianists wouldn’t touch it,  with more notice than you. You’ve also got me back into Scott joplin, to which I haven’t listened in years and am very grateful!

Clementine, Thank you very much for your stunning performance at my parents’ Ruby Wedding Anniversary last night. It was even better than I could have hoped for and my parents loved it too! After Christopher’s feature, when you were playing, my father was reluctant to come over for dinner and just wanted to sit and listen to you! Thanks for being so accommodating of all of my requests as well. 

Thank you again, you were spectacular and really made the perfect evening for us all. Rachel

I am sorry you and I did not have the opportunity to meet last Friday although I did manage to thank the quartet in the reception room. Everyone was most impressed by your dazzling performance and the guest interaction – it was tight but we just finished before 9.30pm – people do talk rather than eat!! Obviously, you did not stay around for the speeches but had you done so you would have heard me saying that one of our acting guests is a good friend of Aled Jones. She sent him a video of your WITA performance and he replied back that he enjoyed it and wished everyone well. I hope all was good for you guys and Skinners’ Hall looked after you well. Thank you again, Andrew … Sharing the Best Ltd

I simply wanted to thank you for a truly outstanding performance at our birthday celebrations yesterday afternoon. You and Russell were incredible. Breathtaking voices, wonderful acting skills and lovely personalities to go with it. You royally entertained our small family gathering consisting of those aged from 6 to 88 – and how you managed to transform our living room into a private show that would not have been out of place at the Royal Opera House or in London’s West End was a truly remarkable feat! You left us all with an incredibly warm glow and made for a hugely memorable occasion. We shall also be personally recommending you to our friends and contacts in London – you deserve all the success that you rightly achieve! In any case, I wish you every continued success – and I so hope that we get to see each other again. Your voice is simply stunning and it was also truly wonderful to meet you. I am so pleased that our original duet let us down!!!  I simply cannot thank you enough – also for your very helpful and efficient preparation for the event at very short notice. With all good wishes and many thanks again, Anthony

I don’t really know where to start – your quartet was absolutely fabulous and really made the day – the normal comment was “best do I’ve ever been to”. As you know, I was unsure about a 2nd 20 minutes, but in hindsight, if it had been possible, we’d have had more. It put everyone on a high and after speeches, different ones were standing up and telling stories. We hope you enjoyed your trip to Royal Lytham and that you all got back safely. Can’t wait until our 75th so that we can ask you back. Never really got the chance to speak to you, but did enjoy the dance. Best wishes, David

Alyson and I cannot thank you and your colleagues enough for your excellent and wonderful performance last Saturday for our Golden Wedding event. Other than our 3 children, no one including our grandchildren, had any idea of what had been organised. As a consequence your opening event had great impact of initial horror before breaking into song – I know our grandchildren loved it all! The occasion was a huge success and already from thank yous we have received all comment on the ” wonderfully entertaining opera singers”! So thank you so much for being a major contributor to our day. You never know there may be other occasions we may meet! Many thanks again to you all.

Dear Tom, Could you please extend my appreciation and thanks to Rebecca and Stephen for the memorable performances from you all on Friday at my President’s Evening, Bisham? It is an understatement that your singing was superb and it was appreciated that you were mixed with the guests. I have had tremendous feedback, including people being moved to tears and some men who ‘didn’t like opera’ being totally won over and excited by it. I look forward to looking out for your names in concert programmes in the future. Warm regards, Louise

Hello Sara, All the guests at the party after Irene’s funeral said what a beautiful voice you have and how wonderfully you sang O Mio Babbino Caro. The whole funeral service went fabulously well and you and your choir, led by James the choirmaster, had a huge role to play in its success. It was an absolute delight to work with you. Thank you for your professionalism – you and Hartley Voices certainly delivered the high quality of musicianship that Irene would have loved. I wish you every success in the future. Many, many thanks. All best wishes, Lesley

This is my first day back after an extended Christmas and New Year break so I am very much in catch up mode.

…from what I have to say in the 6th Christmas that I been at St Peter’s it was, without a doubt, the most beautiful Carol Service!… The Quartet was absolutely amazing… thank you ‘Festive Carol Singers’… Well, I’d like to say last Sunday’s Nine Lessons and Carols at St. Peter’s ranked right up there among the loveliest I’ve attended in recent years… Thank you so much for such a beautiful evening, time to stand still, listen and reflect, surrounded by beautifully sung Carols… A poignant evening for me as it brought back so many memories from all the carols sung… Such a wonderful Carol Service! My Father in law… was thrilled to listen to the amazing quartet… Thank you all!

Dear Sara, I am really sorry that I didn’t get a chance to thank you in person after you performance on Saturday night. It was a lovely interlude during what was a lovely and memorable evening. Peter REALLY enjoyed the music and was especially please by the inclusion of ‘Deh vieni’ from Figaro as it has a particular significance to him (unknown to me!). The programme was very nicely crafted and balanced. Once again many thanks for adding a surprise to his birthday and one that he will not forget.
