After the show:What the performers are saying

"I think everyone performed better than ever, with the result that we really enjoyed doing it - I know I did.  Surely the extra rehearsing we did, individually and as an ensemble, really paid off..."

"What a jolly evening we had! I want to say a very big Bravo to everyone. I think we are performing at our very best and the smiles in the audience - well I felt lifted up." 

"After the performance,a gentleman came up to me and, with tears in his eyes, told me he was a Parisian long in the USA, and that our music had reminded him of home - as Michelin would say 'vaut le voyage.'"

"...This has been such fun, and such an exciting adventure for me.  Finding out that I could do this, and meeting all you wonderful people, creating something together - wonderful..."  

"Singing to the Rossmoor audience was really a pleasant experience, and thanks to all for the privilege of working with you. At least two people I spoke with gave us some very nice compliments, one a woman from Paris and the other a man from Montreal."

"A woman came up to me and said she had brought a friend to the last show, and her friend had asked, 'Was that really Mme. Mitterrand?'"
