'It was a wonderful week, and if everything works out, I’ll be back next year. What a great idea to sing Monteverdi’s music in the city where it was born. I was thrilled about your workshop.' (Dagmar Ziegner, Königswinter)
'It is a lot of fun to work with you on the madrigals! You are a great team and you transfer your enthusiasm to the group. The Madrigal Week is a great experience - a wonderful interplay of the unique atmosphere of Venice, the great music of Monteverdi and the good mood of the group during the rehearsals - and also outside the rehearsals.' (Britta Heiermann, Rommerskirchen)
'The week was simply wonderful! Great teachers, beautiful music, picturesque location ... couldn’t have been better. A great experience! I highly recommend this course to others!' (Katrin Koberling, Berlin)
