COMMENTS;

“Magdalena brought magic to our summer birthday party in our garden. On a rainy autumn evening amazingly she did just the same, as she played from our conservatory whilst the party drank champagne. She plays with a natural grace indicative of her personality”
Jackie Clemants, Psychotherapist

“An otherwordly evening of of delicate and exquisite sounds”
Three Weeks Magazine

“Amara brought joy to the heart and fed the soul with their enchanting, mezmerizing, floating dialogue between harp, flute and voice - a magical evening”
Dee, Artist

“I quite regularly go to live concerts and enjoy all kinds of music. I was especially blessed when I heard ‘Amara’ - I really feel the need to tell you that I have never in my life (and I am 66 years young) been as moved as I was by your music, it was really very special. A big thank you for the beauty of your music!”
Joan, Therapist

“A wedding without music would feel incomplete. It has been such a special event thanks to the beautiful duo. Their repertoire is wonderful, rich and beautifully played both during the ceremony and at the reception. A lovely mood was created”
Catherine Davis, Teacher

“Not only does Udita play with real sensitivity and beauty, but she silently contributes the Grace of Spiritual presence, whether it is at a funeral or a wedding”
Rev Annie Blampied, Interfaith Minister www.annieblampied.co.uk
