'A fab concert with an amazing choir, orchestra and colleagues'
'What a wonderful concert that was! The choir is sounding fantastic, and you (Patrick) conduct with such positive encouragement, clarity and dance - just as it should be!'
'I still have your wonderful music and performance ringing in my ears - well done all.'

Reviews
" The concert on Saturday evening was marvellous with the choir in amazing, full voice - the soloists gorgeously, vocally immaculate, and the conductor like no one we had ever seen before, completely balletic and romantic, drawing everything out of everyone before him. The audience's ovation at the end was tremendous!"
"Congratulations to Patrick for his wonderful shaping of dynamics and phrasing, his lively tempi and infectious enthusiasm. The choir was on top form. Such balance between the parts and such a bright and sparkling tone!"
"What a wonderful concert! The choir sounded fantastic - one of the best amateur choirs I've heard singing the B minor..."
"What an evening! I do hope you are over the moon about last night - it was a triumph."
