We had a wonderful experience and we enjoyed it very much. But there were some songs we didn’t remember the names so we suggest to mention the name before playing it. Also, the parking was $35 and we went to the reception area to inquire reason so high and they gave us a discount. Fever needs to mention that.

What an epic experience! Patricio, Megan, Dan, and Alex are extraordinary—pure, raw talent. The audience was so engaged, making the entire night an unforgettable vibe. Truly poetic and remarkable! I brought my husband as a 40th birthday gift, and as a cellist himself, he was completely blown away. We both had a wonderful time!
