Re: Concert at the KiMo Theater during the Festival

There has been nothing but very high praise for your performance, of Sunday Feb. 10th, during the opening of the Italian Film Festival. Those of us who are involved in the Festival are so grateful and so proud to have you be a part of this event.

The praise from our patrons has been incredibly positive. Many expressed great appreciation for your playing and for the program of music chosen. For some, who had not heard you play before, they were effusive in their comments about the quality of music that you presented.

We are all grateful to you for the contribution that you have made to the Children’s Hospital, through your performance. We are tallying up our costs and revenues and will soon be able to announce a final amount that we will be able to turn over to them.

We would very much like to include the Orchestra again in future Italian Film Festivals.

Mille Grazie,
Ronaldo
