"I had the good fortune of working with Terra Voce as part of the Flute/Cello Commissioning Circle project and was profoundly moved by their rendering of my work, Dviraag. I was honored to have my composition included as part of their singular programming, which easily enchants audiences of all varieties with its unique world view. Both performers interpret each piece with exceptional attention to nuanced musical details. Terra voce is a remarkable duo, combining expert skill and musical sensitivity to deliver truly unique presentations for the flute and cello."

"Thank you for coming to Scottsville...and painting the theatre with the sounds of flute and cello. I have only heard good, positive remarks from those who attended. One parent told me both of her children couldn't stop talking about the instruments and music. It does the heart good to have comments like this coming from our youngsters. Others commented on the variety of music and especially your dialogue throughout. The program you presented was perfect and fits our mission of providing quality arts education to our audiences and participants."

"As Musicians-in-Residence with the Art of Healing program at Hillcrest Medical Center, Elizabeth and Andrew had a wonderful and important impact on patients’ feelings of well-being. Their exquisite duets would always soothe emotions and lift spirits for a few welcome minutes at a time of crisis in peoples’ lives. Most memorably, Elizabeth and Andrew affected the vitality of a patient in the Long Term Acute Care ICU unit by touching her spirit with their music, so much so that she was able to endure a particularly rigorous therapy session far beyond expectations. The nurses and therapists were brought to tears to see this woman who had been so weak, exert such life force. Sometimes touching a person’s spirit is just as vital during their journey of healing as excellent medical care."
— Jennifer Gallagher, Coordinator - Art of Healing program, Hillcrest Medical Center, Tulsa, OK
