"Dear Terri, You were BRILLIANT....thank you for a most enjoyable evening." - Yvette Winwood Terri,
"... I take this opportunity to tell you that we thoroughly enjoyed your performance last Thursday. I'm sure you know that your accompanying musicians are both keepers. I sensed that you were able to focus on your vocals almost 100.... I wish I had taken a few notes. As it is, I can't tell you which songs were merely enjoyable and which ones gave me goose bumps. "Autumn Leaves" was definitely in the latter category. I almost forgot to mention that your narrative added to the performance..., it transformed a group of songs into an almost theatrical whole. In a supper club it would help keep the audience engaged, rather than giving them permission to regard your efforts as mere background music. Please accept my congratulations on assembling such a polished, professional act. Yours truly, Dave Morefield
Amazing Performance of "Voices of the Velvet Revolution"
Terri, Your stunning performance for the Artist's Path inauguration was outstanding! You know your subject intimately by your personal travel to Czechoslovakia, studying history, passionately portraying a peaceful revolution of which the majority of we Americans have never heard, highlighting that pacificists make a difference, that arts and humanities are very powerful persuaders of needed change, and that a playwright can lead a new nation. The leaders of The Artists Path chose the best performers in the West to launch a peaceful revolution that will circle the globe many times. Your beautiful, trained voice moved all of us in the audience, your music writing was very powerful, and you showed a very intellectual, caring, and passionate aspect of the amazing woman that you are. We in the audience were treated to an extremely professional performance and we are so fortunate to have that experience in Prescott. - Artist, Katy Standhardt
