--Kurt Hinkle, Windsor Beacon ("Person of the Week" Feature)

"...full of variety and talented players that will surely cause you to stop and listen.... i was truly awed by the skill or these talented players, i myself am a violin player and these people sound professional, .... a good cd to listen over and over to, and you'll probably never get tired of it. Carole and her sister are destined for greatness so get one of their first works and maybe you'll earn millions later.

--Ken from USA

"What a pleasant surprise! A gift to a non-fiddler who didn't expect to like it. The variety, the beat, the finess, the unusual content. There are few who would not be fascinated with most of the selections. Those young ladies have a real future if they stick to their technique shown in this CD."

--A music fan from Monterey, CA
