Ms. Brewer performed the same program in Atlanta this past Saturday and was even more fantastic than I had hoped for. She said she was suffering from allergies since arriving in town, but I couldn't detect the slightest deficiency. Her voice and skill are truly awesome. Enjoy!
Thanks William! The recital was indeed wonderful. What a voice!
Sounds wonderful! Glad you got to visit with her.
