Testimonials

"Valhalla Media's filming was helmed by Jan Thompson and colleagues, and rendered with skill and imagination. The camera was always where it needed to be with the singers, and the separated trio was smoothly integrated." - Lawrence Johnson, Chicago Classical Review

"The filming was rather astonishingly crafted from a single performance captured live on the stage of Chicago's Studebaker Theatre by Valhalla Media, working in tandem with Dye as stage director." - Chicago Opera Theater's "Taking Up Serpents"
