"A performance by the SFGQ was a feast for
music lover's ears. It was a rare performance by four immensely
talented and sensitive artists. For two hours of sheer listening
pleasure the audience was treated to some familiar and not so

unity. They are so in sync with each other they truly play as
one -- not four separate individuals. A rare feat.”
