Ms. Karen Moorman of Classical Voice North Carolina (www.CVNC.org) has posted these comments to their website:

“..With a call to worship in gorgeous sotto voce with Brian A. Schmidt’s setting of “Lux Aeterna,” … the Conductor coaxed a strikingly dramatic quality from his committed singers.

Unencumbered by written music, the choral sound was full and beautifully balanced. The audience rewarded the chorus with three standing ovations. It was a fine performance.”

Ms. Moorman’s full review can be found here.

Ms. Tara Lynn, Social Networking Director and Arts Liasion for WCPE Classical Radio posted the following after attending the June 20 performance in Raleigh:

“The sheer sound quality of the first work was enough to get me wiping my eyes..The Triangle Gay Men’s Chorus has the most amazing blending skills and their synchronization was really unmatched.. FAN- tab -U -lous!”
