Audience and member testimonials
"The Golden Casket Christmas Celebrations at South Bank were undoubtedly the best yet - due in no small part to your contribution! The Queensland Youth Choir worked wonderfully in the Piazza. We couldn't be happier. All our staff who worked with you commented on how professional, tidy and lovely you all were. I look forward to working with you on future projects."
Kylie Mitchell, Senior Events Coordinator, South Bank Corporation.
"The Queensland Youth Choir delivered an outstanding and professional performance thanks to the dedication of Marion Wood and the obvious enthusiasm and talent of the choir members. I thank you for your valuable support and commitment, without which the 2007 Police Commissioner's Christmas Carols would not have been the success that it was."
R. Atkinson
Commissioner
"I'm writing to congratulate the Queensland Orchestra and the Queensland Youth Choir for an outstanding performance throughout the opening ceremony of the Urological Society conference. I have never heard national anthems sung and played so beautifully. I think the members of the relevant countries were very moved and impressed by your wonderful performances."
Dr David Ellis F.R.C.S. F.R.A.C.S.
"Federation Song, presented by the Queensland Youth Choir, ought to have been among the [4MBS Festival of Classics] fare with its exhilarating celebration of Australian song by young Australians whose singing was very moving, and whose remarkable pizzazz in Australian bush songs and The Boy from OZ Medley was dazzling."
Patricia Kelly, Reviewer, "The Courier Mail"
"Please extend to all those who participated in Gloria a Dios my heartfelt thanks and congratulations for an afternoon of sheer delight. My friends and I were thrilled to the point of exhaustion"

"What a mature performance. Their personality and presentation in which each individual was able to make their contribution to a beautifully integrated presentation was a pleasure to listen to."
Ken G Pope, audience member
"I have been asked to publicly compliment the Queensland Youth Choir on their performances. Everyone [at the Australian Finnish Rest Home 30th Anniversary celebrations] appreciated the quality of their beautiful voices and I have it on good authority from His Excellency Mr Lipponen (Speaker of the Finnish Parliament) that the choir's pronunciation of the Finnish lyrics was impeccable."
John English, MP, speaking in the Queensland Parliament
