"Last night I attended "Beyond Measure."
What a fantastic concert! Who would ever think of taking songs from
contemporary singer-songwriters and turning them into choral works?
It was not only an intersting idea, but a highly successful one
leading to an immensely enjoyable performance. I have been involved
in choral singing since college (Carnegie Mellon Cameron Choir,
Temple University Singers, Singing City, Mastersingers, and the
Wayne Oratorio Society), so this concert was especially appealing
to me. Thank you for a great evening and for introducing me to so
many wonderful artists. Please do this again!"
"What an amazing Show! I am so glad to
have been part of it."
"Beyond Measure was truly beyond expectations.
As a participating songwriter, I really can't thank you enough for
the exposure, the learning, the recognition, the networking, and
everything afforded by the overall experience. The venue was fantastic.
The choirs were amazing. I LOVED the choir who performed my song."
