“I had never before experienced the sound of the Carillon and was quite astounded at the beauty of the acoustics and the finesse with which you played. I’ve been to many classical performances by world-class artists, but none have entranced me so much as your act on that day. I want to thank you for keeping alive the spirit of this magnificent instrument, and I will look forward to attending future performances from you.” ~Kris
