The musical presentation was trully very exciting and beautiful. The variety of musical instruments used in the presentation was unique. All the solo performances were outstanding, and the enthusiasm shown by each of the performers was contagious and very quickly conveyed to the audience. The musical extravaganza was unique, and unfortunately, this was but a one time performance. Please congratulate all the performers for their unique style and enthusiasm in the entire presentation. On a scale of 1 to 10, the performance merits a 20! Thank you Goldstar, for bringing this performance to our attention.Written on Oct 20 2008

This concert was a perfect Christmas gift. My husband and I both enjoyed it tremendously. The quality of the musicians and the boys' choir was superb. This was our first time at the Broad Stage and it had excellent acoustics and exquisite architecture. The sunset from the upstairs window at intermission was an added bonus.Written on Dec 16 2008

Everything was great with one small exception. The last four rows the end half a dozen chairs make a curving motion to fit the building's curve. Problem is you end up looking at the wall so you sit leaning in toward the stage.Written on Dec 15 2008
Truly a design flaw and nothing to do with Goldstar.
