Any time someone creates something artistic, they wonder whether anyone else will enjoy it.   It's all very well to talk about "art for art's sake", but a musical work can't just hang on a wall; it must be performed (or at least, rehearsed) for other musicians and, especially, audiences, to appreciate it.  So it is very gratifying to receive positive feedback from so many sources.  Often, this comes in the form of a letter or phone call saying "I liked your arrangement of such-and-such; please tell me what else you have to offer".  Other times, the compliment is more oblique, more along the lines of "we've got a gig next Saturday and the trombone player's dog ate his part; can you please rush us a new copy?". However they come, they're welcome. In fact, if you have any feedback, (negative, too, please), you can now contact us electronically.
