Quote of the month (April 2024):
"I love the day after a concert. People with smiles on their faces, springs in their step, happy memories in their minds, friendships strengthened and found, a renewed belief in what they can achieve, a desire to do even better next time, and a lovely energy in the air."
- Vaughan Fleischfresser

"Don Krudop is on a very short list of conductors who can see into my heart as a composer." - Daniel E. Gawthrop
-
"Your choir is one of the finest I've ever worked with." - Rodney Eichenberger

"I wish all of you could come up here and see the magic that happens between this man and this choir." - Doreen Rao

"Best of all was the guest ensemble, Vox Harmonia, a student chamber choir from the Visual and Performing Arts Academy at Salem High School, Virginia Beach. Holding hands, leaning their bodies forward, and riveting wide-eyed attention on conductor Don Krudop, they sang with a rapt concentration and ravishing sound that took the breath away." Joseph Bano, The Washington Post in a review of the City Choir of Washington Christmas concert at the National Presbyterian Church.
