Review:

Sylvia S

I have known Sylvia S for over 3 years. She has performed with the Spelman Jazz Ensemble for the three years that I have been Director of the Ensemble. Sylvia is mature, dependable and focused. She is constantly aspiring to grow in many creative and artistic endeavors. She connects splendidly with young and shows compassion in her daily life. She would be an outstanding choice for your music school. Ralph M. Jones Senior Lecturer, Spelman College wrote on Mon, 03 Oct 2016
