Dear Singers of RSVP,

There are times when it all comes together, when you get absolute confirmation that yes, you are doing what you were out on this earth to do.  That's how I felt the moment you began singing "How Can I Keep From Singing" at dress rehearsal. 

You gave me this extraordinary gift.  Thank you.

Sincerely,

Joan Oliver Goldsmith 

"Shakespeare Sings" - January 2003

Dear Ms. Adams,

 ...I believe your commitment to "compassion in action" combined with your musical mastery makes RSVP ideal "ambassadors for the arts."  By supporting vital services to people in need while at the same time delivering a delightful esthetic experience to your audiences, your group demonstrates the capacity of art to heal on many levels.  You have my sincere admiration!...

Sincerely,

Stuart Kirsch

PALS Coordinator   

Dear Singers,

...It was indeed, an honor, not merely to hear you sing my music, but to know that it has been utilized in such an original way, by such a unique ensemble.

Dear Julie & Choir, 

For an ordinary human to be serenaded by a WHOLE CHOIR!!! I felt very honored, it was a once in a life time event.  Thanks to you all. 

We were very proud to be the recipients of your endeavors.  To be able to enjoy the beautiful music and receive money for our program was quite an unusual event.
