I just wanted to thank you again for meeting with me last month.  You helped me so much with those Liszt songs and I've found your advice to be very helpful in my auditions recently.  You really gave me a great perspective on things and it's refreshing to hear someone just plain tell it like it is!! Sincerely, Alicia Gianni:)

Mary,  Your web site is wonderful.  I think the photos are my favorite part.  There is such a strong family resemblance between your parents, your sister, and you.  I couldn't agree more with all the gracious comments people have used to describe you, your talent, and your wisdom.

Hey Mary, What a wonderful addition to your many glowing credentials! I must admit I thought I knew most of your activities and I was astonished to learn of the many fantastic things you continue to do to help young students of singing, artists and teachers become more informed about French repertory, song interpretation, artists and diction.
 
 My students are being informed as I write. Congratulations and "You GO girl"! Love, Barbara

Dear Mary: What a great site--clean, clear, informative, with great visuals AND quick and easy to navigate (that last being the rarest quality of all these days).  Brava!  But if I'd known you were going to quote me, I'd have written you something much MORE glowing (our members are STILL talking  about what a wonderful class you gave in February); you deserve it!

Mary, just wanted to say I've finally checked out your website - looks great! I would love to see a bit more introduction on your first page, though, so that I'm invited to click on more and really "get to know you" online. But the set-up looks great, and I'm going to put you under "operatic" links on my site. Talk to you soon - - I'm in Paris!!! Love, Laura
--Laura Claycomb

Mary, Your website, like everything else I've seen or heard you do (workshops, books, concerts, recordings), c'est MAGNIFIQUE!  It's user  friendly and displays your professional credits quite well.  But most of all I love the photos, especially the ones of your dad.  It's obvious that your friendship and tremendous expertise enrich all who come in contact with you (we are so blessed!).  Long live the personal touch!  Love, Vanessa
--Vanessa, Portland, OR, USA
 

bulletMary, THIS IS FANTASTIC!!! I just perused a few of your sites and had a great time looking at all the photos! It's almost like you were here!!! Again, wishing you a great belated bday. Looking forward to seeing you again. love, M

bulletI found your pages very interesting. I am particularly interested in your experience in China. I am finishing my master's in vocal performance at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee, and upon graduation I may be moving to Taiwan with my husband who is Chinese. I am eagerly researching anything available on Chinese Opera, and any materials on how I can continue my singing/teaching career in Taiwan. Your notebook was nice to read and the pages of your website look pleasing. After reading about your experience, I am hopeful that I can continue my music learning and performing in a new country. Nice web site!

bulletMary, Thanks for the note.  I am the nephew of composer Samuel Barber and sang with the Chicago Symphony and Lyric Opera while in school.  I am now teaching and coaching at the other end of the spectrum with pop musicians in Nashville TN and loving it.  I coach a lot of the Contemporary Christian Artists and work with record companies etc.  It's great fun "translating" the principles of good singing into the everyday English of these students. My wife and I have been doing this about 30 years. Your resume is impressive in every sense.  Classical music is still where I find my peace and regain my sanity and such will always be the case. Thanks again for your note, and may God bless you in all you do.

Transmet mes voeux à Jian-Hong, je lui souhaite une belle progression dans sa carrière, plein de succès et...d'amour !
 
Je t'embrasse très fort.

bulletMary,  It was such an honor and privilege (and FUN!) to work with you on L'Enfant et les Sortilèges.  In a short period of time, I learned so much from you.  I certainly hope to be working with you on many future endeavors.
