- Strings were brilliant, best choice of music. The ballet dancers did a wonderful job - 2 of them had come out of covid isolation in the last week & felt unwell, bit didn't let it show
- to sit and lose oneself in the magic of Tchaikovsky performed so brilliantly and enjoy the spectacular ballet.............Amazing............I wanted more!!
- We had a great experience. The number of candles was amazing & gave the auditorium a great atmosphere. The string quartet & ballet dancers were really good too. A really good choice of music. Thank-you

- The quartet were outstanding! And the ballerinas were great as well. I did find the 2 together a little distracting. I loved the music, so familiar & that went well with getting back to a live performance. Big tick :)
