Testimonials

Christine, On behalf of the Waldorf School, we thank you for contributing to our community your special gift of enabling the magic of music to abound and take us to far away places this evening of St. Patrick’s Day, 2009. We are truly grateful for your time, energy and talents. Sincerely, Diana and Crew

You were amazing. My family appreciated you more than you [will] [ever] know.

Regarding Memorial Service on 9/11/10: You did great! Your playing was magnificent and inspired. I smiled the whole way through. YOU are an incredible player. Artist. All that. Such incredible and heartfelt dynamics. A true mastery both gentle and strong on your instrument. Cindy Delster-Reiber

Dear Christine, Am enclosing giving an introductory voice lesson to my friend, as a birthday gift. I hope she will enjoy her session will you as much as I enjoyed chatting with you last Tuesday evening. Judging from our conversation I’m sure that Lorie will have a wonderful time with you and find herself in good hands. Thank you very much, Corbett Petteway

As dad would say, "That was a show!" Congratulations on a successful, stupendous HARP CONCERT! Dear Chrissy, You are glorious! You were regal and spectacular! I basked in the glory of you healing harp playing. I was so very proud of you! Dad was in that audience. You were radiant, I love you. Congratulations. Love, Your sister Valerie

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to take lessons with you. I just wanted to relay that Emily is really enjoying her lessons. She was up till 9:20 last night just playing and singing on the piano and having a good old time. Normally it is her asking how many more minutes? But last night, it was me saying “Time to go to bed.” She enjoys herself. Just played with the markers on the piano and was making up a [compositional] sandwich for you and having a good time. This is exactly what we were hoping to foster in her. She’s a serious student. She takes her academics and soccer very seriously. We were hoping for her to have a lightened load with piano and some creativity and happiness. Just wanted to let you know that we’re extremely happy and Emily’s really enjoying herself. Thanks again. We’re off next week but we’ll see you the following week. Sunni

Dear Christine, First of all I wanted thank you for the joy and uplifting experience your gift of playing the harp gave to our parishioners. Several of them commented how spiritual they found Mass with a harpist background, to be. Thank you for your financial evaluation and return to our treasury. Church is a place to begin the true reformation of our minds and hearts in relation to our gay brothers and sisters. We are presently in the ebb and flow of change at the crossroads of new attitude. Every little bit helps to change, to learn and to open our hearts. May the Lord continue to bless you with the harpist talent that helps so many people to be uplifted. Best Wishes, Tomás A. Elis C.

Dear Mrs. Holvick, Thank you so much for being a wonderful teacher to me these past few years. It’s sad that I’m moving down to L.A. I’m truly going to miss you. I will cherish our memories! Thank you so much for helping me get into my school. I’m very appreciated. I wish you in good health and happiness! Your student, Shuna Han

Dear Christine, Thank you again for your enchanting program at the Braille Institute yesterday. Everything you do is beautiful – the harp music, your singing, your outfit, the harp’s outfit, you – the entire package! I marvel at your attention to detail and all your efforts to make things lovely and enjoyable for those lucky enough to be in your audience. Merci bouquets for all you do! With gratitude, Harriet
