"What a wonderful and generous group you are. Your voices, movement and poetry helped welcome and ground [us] in all that's good about humankind. You filled [us] with the spirit of love and hope, and most importantly, compassion."

“The Cyrenes have been together for 20 years and they sing with a conductor and without charts and this all helps listening and expression. They were comfortable musically and welcoming personally and it shows in their sound... So I found the sounds and voices lovely and sometimes beauteous and not at all shrill or tiring. But perhaps I’ll take away a memory of women’s business. These songs all said something: sometimes in words; sometimes in the emotional truth of the music.”
