“Just wanted to tell you how much I appreciated the GLAS Christmas
Concert. To judge by the ‘feedback’ from others nearby, the approval
rating in the audience was around about 100%! ”

“I had a tear in my eye at the end of the show last night. It was so
very beautiful! Even if you were to have White Raven year after year,
that would be OK with me.”
