Jeremy had this to say about the presentation.

Dear old harp singers,

I've not properly thanked you for your generous time and your beautiful voices with which you so kindly supported my project. Thanks to your boldness and hard work, a different slice of Knoxville now has an awareness of our dear tradition. But for me, doing this together with you has made me feel more deeply the bond of our old harp community.

My sincerest thanks to you all: Tina, Sarah, and Chaz on alto; Ruth and Ann on Treble; Claudia, Christine, Sara, and Rick on Tenor; and Bill and Joe on bass!

Yours ever,

Jeremy Shipp, bass
