<p>I just love the "Concert" - it reminds me so much of how our
Nephew, who is attending the Eastman School of Music in
Rochester, NY has taken time out of his hectic schedule to send
words of "Encouragement" to our Grandson who is in 8th grand
band. This is absolutely beautiful - thank you!!!!!<br>

<p>I've been in love with this spot since the first time I saw it.
I, too, usually stop what I'm doing to watch it -- and shed a
tear or two. Thank you! <br>

<p>My English teacher told us this story. It also happened to his
son. Your commercial had remarkable resemblance to it. Thank you
for what you do!<br>

<p>This spot (Concert) is my favorite so far. It brings tears to
my eyes every time. The pianist is truly a Pro. Keep playing
this one!!! I also like "You Can Let Go" and "You Raise Me Up."<br>

<p>Innocence is something we should all keep close to our hearts,
as it makes us so darn thankful for the melodies that you stir
within our hearts. Blessings always.<br>

<p>Wow. I think that one is the best of them all! I have done
scary things like that but people get mad at me! However, that's
a great message to send out and helps make everything better
too! <br>

<p>This one always touches me. I am a 14 year old pianist and I
always like to think about this particular situation and how it
turns into such a heartwarming inspiration.<br>
