"She is very adept at getting a group to play as a unified ensemble while still having the individual players add their own particular flavor to the music. All of this is accomplished in a non-stressful, relaxed but very challenging atmosphere. " – Christopher Mirley, (viola da gamba) Winthrop, MA

"Heloise emphasizes listening to the other parts while playing, which leads to better coordination and a more satisfying sound. This is the difference between a group really making music and individuals just reading music off the page! " – Lori Gayle, Arlington, MA
