True comments from members of my audiences include:
I really enjoy your music.
I keep coming back to this restaurant, not just for the food, but especially to listen to your piano-playing.
I would like to buy a DVD of your music; it is so moving.
I remember my parents singing the songs you play.
I will call my mother in Mexico so she can hear you play... just like my late father played. Thank you.
I love your rendition of Show tunes, especially the ones from Phantom of the Opera and older show tunes.
