The hosted lunch at the Tomasi de Lampedusa palazzo was an absolute joy.

Rick Phillips [was] superb! An enlightening, charming, engaging experience all around. I learned so much from him, as did we all. Rick’s knowledge is legion, his delivery awesome, and his classroom management skills second to none. Being able to actually see and hear the performances [at the Toronto Summer Music Festival concert] transported us all.

I’m so happy to have participated in this oh so full, rich week […] and intend to sign up every year from now on. I would certainly encourage, all who are able to sign up for this rare learning experience.
