“Congratulations to the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra, Conductor Rosemary
Thomson and guest soloist Michael Hope for a wonderful and most enjoyable
performance on Friday evening. There was a lot of exhilaration in the air
with each number performed, and I do think you all set the inspiration
going. I was sorry the evening was over… “

“We were present for the Philharmonic Pops Concert last Friday evening and
would just like Michael to know what a marvelous evening it was! The choice of music, his pertinent comments, were all so much appreciated. We left the concert hall feeling inspired and enriched in so many ways. I was emotionally moved … Please know, that the program and his comments were so very much appreciated by us, and by so many others at the concert. “
- Lawrence & Doreen Likness

“Michael has a beautiful voice and it was really a nice selection of songs. He has a very cute sense of humour, and smiles a lot, so the evening was very upbeat … What a genuinely nice guy, and so enthusiastic. It's so nice to see a show that is good for kids, seniors and everyone in between! Anyway, I just can't say enough - wonderful, terrific - I think we all felt like we were walking on air when we left…. I'm so glad we went and would go to another one of his in a heartbeat. Please tell Michael I enjoyed meeting him and thank him for the most wonderful evening I've spent in a long time. I think we all get so busy these days that we sometimes forget what music can add to our lives. The glow lasted for days! “
