Quotes
“- a very uplifting piece of music which transports one into the presence of God in a way that words on their own often can’t. I love the serenity and poise of the music.”

Church of England

“It’s so heartwarming to me to hear what you are doing. These acts of kindness go a long way in today’s world.”
-Louise Pascale, author of Qu Qu QU Barg-e-Chinaar, Children’s songs from Afghanistan
“The idea of including a variety songs from different countries, which I’ll admit I struggled with when I had simply read about it, I think really works because you have chosen songs for their musical and poetic value and because you have responded warmly and musically to them. The narrative is maintained in a way I didn’t think possible: it’s a charming story with a life of its own and certainly not just a vehicle for linking the musical material.”
-Peter Easton, Music Co-ordinator, Holywell School, Loughborough, England
“What a wonderful, fun event that covers so many interesting styles and cultures congratulations to you on this huge success! I am sure it will be well received wherever you produce it. The singers sound great and the band is very tight. Love Caldera, well done, nicely sung, and what fun ~ good use of the “party” element within the journey.”
-Jerry Leake, World Percussionist/Composer, Associate Professor, Berklee College of Music
“She is a right old bossy boots”
-Natalie’s Mum, of Natalie aged 7
