“Hello Danette and Dolce Strings,
On behalf of the Houston Civic Symphony, I would like to thank you again for performing in the HBU Theater lobby before the Friday (March 6, 2015) concert. What a wonderful introduction to the concert for the audience to have a preview of young talent playing in the lobby. Maybe one of these young people will be a concerto winner one day!
I loved the quick transitions from one piece to the next, and the wealth of the repertoire was very impressive. I personally loved how musical each piece was and how well in tune the students played. You have been a fabulous teacher, and the violinists have been fabulous students. It is heart-warming to hear these youth playing so well and to know that they were sharing their talents with the community.
Thank you once again!
Dixie Addington”

“I want to let you know that I love your sounds and perfomance. Your Twinkle was so beautiful and I request to play Twinkle variations myself at the recital of private lesson. I am also a beginner (adult) violin student.”

“…are your ears burning? We just came from (our school) orch concert where (another parent) and I were just talking about what a wonderful & powerful influence you have been in both our kids’ lives. No joke!”

“It was such a good experience again to be able to attend your group class. Once (one of my children) got into the car, she started to list the pieces she was not doing well and she is going to work on at home. That is already the outcomes we have got from your class. I don’t have to tell them what to do. They have had the motivations to do it.”

“My husband took (my child) to your group class last Saturday for the first time – actually the first time (my child) has ever been in a group class. I was getting worried because he was losing interest in playing violin, but he called me after he left your class and said he had a good time. I was really excited to hear the excitement from his voice. …(my child) practiced really good this week. He has (most of the music) pretty much memorized.”
M.K. Spring
“(My child) played (one of the special advanced out-of-the-literature pieces from Dolce Strings group class) with (his private teacher) at his recital… He was outstanding!! I know I’m his mom, but wow!! I was blown away. He has learned so much from you and is so inspired by your classes. …what a great influence you have been on (my child).”
