      The 2009 Holiday Pops was an outstanding high energy, quality performance! The incorporation of instrumental and vocal music as well as dance was extraordinary. Thank you for lifting our spirits!

      This concert was outstanding! The soloists, especially Pia Broden-Williams, were superb and exciting. But why was summer conductor David Mairs not even mentioned in any of the concert information. He is such a class act, not only as a gifted musician but as an engaging performer and "narrator" who was able to involve the audience in everything that happened last night. Without him, the concert would have not been nearly as special as it was. Collapse
