"Just wanted to say how lovely Saturday's concert was!  We very much enjoyed the rich sounds coming from Essex Voices, all blending so well, and while almost all the composers were known to me, the music itself wasn't, so nice to hear some 'new' pieces as well."

"Thank you for staging your outstanding musical events in our church, and we are so fortunate to have musicians of your calibre performing."

"Thank you too Annabel and your colleagues for a beautiful performance, some wonderful music brilliantly performed."

"It was a great concert. All 3 ladies we encouraged to go really enjoyed it."

"I have never heard any of the music but I really love to hear Palestrina. We sang a lot in Monaco years ago and G Waltham Church is a perfect venue to sing it. You voices blended beautifully."

"Thank you for a lovely evening."

"Fantastic concert."
