I would like to express my deep appreciation for a stupendously magnificent performance this afternoon at Montesalvat. The playing was so expressive with each instrument seeming in perfect concert with all the others while Richard Piper artfully and expressively created the mood for each piece without in any way seeming to take away from the centrality of the story and the music.

It’s years since I had the leisure to attend a live performance but doing so today reminded me of the fact that despite the purity of recorded music it cannot compare with a live performance such as this.

Bravo to you all

Loved your [FQ Digital] concert last night. The voice of your opera singer was amazing, just so rich and warm. Fitted perfectly with the quartet. I was not expecting opera with a strings quartet, but it worked!

The chat commentary was really interesting too, it gave us a perspective of how you as players experienced the music while rehearsing it and the connection with people who composed the music. It was also interesting to read in your chat about what you saw when you looked back at your own concert recording. Having chat and the video was very connecting for the viewer as well. A fascinating evening all round, just wonderful!
