I just wanted to thank you, again, for sharing your music and talent with our singers last week. It was definitely a highlight for those kids. You and your colleagues had a wonderful way of being demanding and encouraging at the same time. I overheard several of them talking later that day about all the things they had learned from you and your group—you all really made a positive impact on them. Thank you so much!
