Tim is creative, inspiring, and fun to work with, and it was truly a collaborative process. The audience really loved and appreciated his work, as their response was nothing short of enthusiasm.”

“This symphony was amazing. I saw with visitors from Indiana who had never been to a symphony. Upon its ending the gentleman said he was able to put himself into the music as directed and vividly describe his experience. We dined after the program and the symphony was all he could talk about. Thank you.”

“I was hesitant to hear a new symphony. But I enjoyed it!”

“Stunning premier performance!”

“I was fascinated that the journey of this symphony is the opposite of the traditional storyline that travels from morning to evening. This tale is the hidden beauty that folds between each passing day. The beauty of the little things. The majesty that is only taken in when you slow down and give yourself time to dream. This immediately took my mind to a reset.”
