It was a once in a lifetime experience to be in a room in the prison listening to the sweet sounds of Vivaldi. It is hard to believe the absolutely fabulous sounds produced by the six musicians. I only wish they would have played longer!

MRS PAULINE PARKINSON

Prior to our trip to Venice, we decided to book as many 'entertainments' as we could. This was one. What an absolute delight...... The venue was exceptional and interesting, the orchestra was brilliant. We were mesmerised throughout, could not recommend this event enough. You should attend.... You won't regret it....THANK YOU FOR A MOST WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!!!!!!!

MRS J MEEHAN

Wonderful experience. Very special venue and excellent musicians. Perfect end to a perfect day in Venice.

Brian Strehler

We had such a fun evening. Walking the labyrinths of Venice to find the church where the concert was being held set us up for the concert. We had dinner at a restaurant in the square beforehand and found that our table companions were also going to the concert. A delightful evening. We could hardly believe we were in Venice listening to Vivaldi's Four Seasons. The playing was passionate and even though the group must have played this concert many times before, they made it sound so special for us the evening we were there. We felt very blessed and we thank you for such a nice WARM church too.
