- The song selection and the quartet’s performance were outstanding.
- Best candlelight performance yet. Yes! The 4 piece Kalkaska quartet sounded like full orchestra. super job
- Awesome job! It's insane a 4 piece can recreate what a full orchestra did for the movie and do it so well. This is our 4th Candlelight concert and we'll be on the lookout for more! Greatest Showman maybe??
- Delightful!
- The Wizard of Oz Candlelight Concert was magical
- Always an awesome experience! Absolutely amazing the agility and ability of the quartet to play the score from the Wizard of Oz. Bravo!
- Very enjoyable. A little emotional. Takes you back to being a kid! Loved it
- Such a lovely event!
