It's an honor to be part of this wonderful undertaking. These kids are never going to forget this experience they have had with you. You treat them like serious musicians, and they are learning so much - rhythm, tone, musicality, the beauty of music in general, poise and confidence in front of an audience, working together.
(Ellen, volunteer)
