It was amazing . . . I loved it so much! I'm not really familiar with jazz music. And if jazz sounds like that, I want it every day! I don't even have words to describe, but it was just a feeling, and I had to get up from my seat .

It was amazing! Honestly, I don't think I'm going to enjoy other music as much anymore now that I've heard that it ruined everything else for me.

- Jon Hanton, Student

Oh, my God! They were awesome! I didn't even know Prof. Spira had the lit like that with the horn. . . Y'all need to check them out.

I was like, damn, that's a performance right there. We got to take the Fire Music Project to the world man, make it Global.

It was like the best musical performance I've ever seen! It was so good. I never witnessed or heard anything like that.

Oh, my God, it was a electric! It was fire! I loved it. It was amazing!
