FEEDBACK FROM THE STUDENTS:

Jonny P.
                I really enjoyed the quartet that came here to Mitchell High School. I really liked the fact that they came and gave us the actual background of the pieces they played. They presented the piece and showed us that music has language, that music is more than just notes on a piece of paper. They showed us that music can show conversation, and how history and time itself can be preserved through music.

Ingrid V.
                The performance has motivated to increase my practice sessions more and more each time. I was astonished by how four people could interpret a piece of music so beautifully.

Katie B.
                I personally loved that the quartet came and played for us. It motivated me to challenge myself, and thank them for sharing their background history of the piece.
