A Thank you from Maria Naveiro

Posted May 15th, 2008 by webmaster

I had a wonderful time during the recording session yesterday. It was very nice of Dan Buckman to introduce me to the people in the recording studio. At one point during a break, Mr. Galway appeared and I had a chance to chat with him. I told him about my years as a flute player and he was very nice to ask me a few things about it....Thank you again for this wonderful opportunity...(read more)

Dear John and Bill:

Thank you very much for hosting us on the May 7th and in promoting the Handel "Joshua"concert.

My Mom is Best - Winner #3

Posted May 12th, 2008 by webmaster

My mum is the best, because "I said so". I wake up everyday because my mum exists. I go to school and I try my hardest to get 90s on essays, because of my mum. She is the most honest and constant presence in life, which is the basis for my own. She sings the songs I write, and though she doesn't always get the lyrics perfect it's enough to let me know. That she thinks about me and that she acknowledges my own achievements...(read more)

My Mom is Best - Winner #1

Posted May 7th, 2008 by webmaster

My Mom, Mrs. Ninette Kalfa, is the best Mom one could have. The most unselfish person I know did everything and anything she could for us (her 4 children) anytime, all the time. She sacrificed whatever needed to be sacrificed, always, for the benefit of her children. We came to Canada when we were very little, with no money and were very poor. She always made sure that we had all the necessities a child growing up needs...(read more)
