I hate tooting my own horn, but these praises are worth repeating and I really do appreciate your kind words:
-- "Hi Sharon – Just wanted to thank you again for all of your efforts. We had an amazing turnout here at Germantown Jewish Centre, more than 300 people (double the amount we expected). A diverse group that came for many different reasons and we’ve only had positive feedback so far." - GJC Program Director
-- "Sharon, We have been meaning to let you know how impressed we are with your site. You have done a fabulous job of organizing and informing folks about the many worthwhile cultural activities in our area. Congratulations!" - Members of LocalArtsLive
--"I was browsing around the site earlier today. The classical music community needs something like this! I am very happy to be a part of it." - Marketing Associate, Academy of Vocal Arts
--"Dear Sharon, we are so grateful for your beautifully written piece on the "Way" concert. It is refreshing to hear an expressive account about the feeling of a concert, including the audience response, and you truly understand what it is to play string trios..." - David Cole, EnSemBle M, cello
--"In addition to the exposure of performing in a Showcase, we also gained valuable marketing material from it, and are grateful that we now have these resources at our disposal. We appreciate that LocalArtsLive recognizes this need for new groups and is generous enough to offer such things. Thank you!"– The Laughing Bird
--"All said, it was a great musical showcase planned by LocalArtsLive director Sharon Torello and the William Way LGBT Center; I can think of very few times when I was treated to such diversity of talent, people, and aesthetics in one single program." - Carlos Roberto Ramírez
--"Your LocalArtsLive website is an awesome and neverending cornucopia of classical venues!" - Ray Greenblatt
--"Sharon Torello is an active observer of Philadelphia’s music scene, a great booster for all things music here. She points out that this is not a “critical review,” but rather “the viewpoint of a ‘regular member’ of the audience. I think her comparison of the early and modern instruments is about as good as it gets." Kile Smith, composer
