Nov. 15th 2010, after a Jazz performance at a private function

 Dear Ms. Munoz:

 I wanted to send a short e-mail to say “Thank You” for your performance last night at the Concordia – Argonaut, which was enjoyed by all. I hope you enjoyed being here and I wish you much success in the future. Stay well and may you thrive. May our paths cross again. 

Warmest Regards, 

Henry Johns

General Manager

Hi Brooke,

 

It has been almost 3 months since you sang at our wedding at Mission Santa Clara.  We both regret that we didn't get to meet you and thank you in person with all of the hustle and bustle of the day.  I just wanted to extend some well deserved praise for what a great job you did.  When we got back from our honeymoon my coworkers were still raving about your beautiful voice.  Then last night we watched our wedding video for the first time and could truly enjoy the music without battling nerves like on the big day.  Your voice is absolutely beautiful.  Thank you also for rolling with the punches since the priest did go a bit out of order with the sequence of events and you and Virginia were right on it.

 

I hope this finds you doing well, and thank you again very much.

 

Sincerely,

Lindsey and Adam Bishop

You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown

I grew up reading Peanuts & am still a big fan, so it
was hard for me to pass up the San Francisco Conservatory of Music's production of You're A
Good Man, Charlie Brown this Saturday night.
The show was revised for its 1999 Broadway revival,
so it is not quite the period piece I thought it might be.
In fact, the show didn't evoke the comic strip for me
at all, but it was performed with earnest joy by the
student cast. It was impossible to resist the appropri-
ately hammy performance of Jimmy Featherstone
as Snoopy. Brooke Munoz created a convincing
character as the harridan Lucy, & she has a voice that probably needs no amplification. I had fun watching
the cast execute the dance moves from the Charlie
Brown Christmas cartoon. Other clever bits of choreo-graphy parodied Les Miz & Bob Fosse.
