- Wonderful concert! The music was beautiful and the venue was stunning! Amazing evening!
- The performers were incredible!
- Well organized regarding seating with assistance. Ambience was great along with acustics. We took our 92 yr old grandma with a wheelchair and were treated royally. Taken to our seats and assisted with storing the wheelchair and getting it after the concert. Ample room to steer the wheelchair down the aisle. Looking forward to more
