"Music Alive 2002 was a resounding success due in a very large part to your contributions as a clinician-adjudicator. The non-competitive, educational nature of this festival pivots on the expertise, positive approach and constructive criticism that you offered in each session. 
... we would like to thank you for your superb work in our region. D. G., Coordinator"
