    A brilliant and touching illustration of undeniable talent. In America, we put so much emphasis on who can sing or who can dance. But there are other talents , talents that appeal to the heart and the soul. THIS is one of them. Brava, Miss Simonova. You have a rare and precious gift.

    the thought and perfect timing that went into making her art, is exceptional. Any one who has experienced or knows of any war cannot fail to be moved. Yes music and lighting help, but that is what she has decided to give maximum effect.

    great!!

    in her case, I really think that the music did the most touching work

    I didn’t thought it was very moving maybe because I can’t recognize the monuments and buildings and something
    and the correct light can stimulate anyone

    I thought that she was going to write “that’s all folks” in the end kkkkkkkkkkkk
