It is incredibly difficult to believe that we are almost at the end of our UK tour. The time of almost 8 months here has passed so quickly!!! As always it was very pleasurable to perform for the audiences in the UK and also to have the chance to see so many of the cities. The audiences have been so kind to our show and i have had the most pleasure in my performing life from the reaction we get at the end of each show...Thank you for that.
All my heart to you.
