Robert,

Fantastic stuff Wednesday!!! I'm hearing such great things here about the fact that we had music . . . maybe for our Cinco de Mayo celebration we can hook up again? Let's see what happens!

Really — lots of good comments about your playing. I think people were surprised because 'this is a hospital', and they thought we'd have some hack come in from the skyway or something!!! They loved you!!!

Thanks again -Jeff

Robert,

I work at HCMC and bought your brazilian cd at our medicine clinic Christmas party. It is WONDERFUL and I want to get another one for a friend. I am so sorry that I missed your cd release party, but I had family obligations. I think the caliber of your music is exceptional and your voice flawless.

Thanks, Robert.

Thanks for the email. It was wonderful meeting you at Maria's restaurant on Saturday, May 3rd. Thanks for letting my daughter, Dana, sing with you. That was very gracious. I am back in South Carolina now but thanks for the wonderful experience.

I love your music!!!!!!!

Ciao Roberto,

...Sto ascoltando molto i tuoi cd, sono bellissimi, davvero… non mi stanco mai di ascoltarli, mi aiutano tantissimo anche quando sono con l' auto in mezzo al traffico, chiudo i finestrini alzo il volume e cancello tutti i brutti rumori, sento solo la tua musica e la tua voce! Sei contento che ti porto in giro per Firenze? Comunque… una delle mie preferite è 'Oceano' e un' altra è 'Eu te devoro' o 'No soy de aquì..'… e tante altre… ce n' è (ne è!… non so bene cosa voglia dire questo 'ne' ma è proprio importante! se lo scopri dimmelo, mi raccomando) una, mi sembra la n°7 di Gracias a la vida (e non solo quella) che mi ricorda tantissimo un cantante italiano che amo: De Andrè, hai mai ascoltato qualche sua canzone? Ti piacerebbe, è un poeta...

Un abbraccio,
Marialaura Giorgi, Firenze, Italia

Roberto,

Parabens pelo show no Carnaval, a brasileirada se sentiu em casa.

Um abraco,
Ricardo Medeiros __________________________________________________________________________________________

A festa estava demais, Robertinho! Muito obrigada por todo o trabalho
seu e de sua equipe. Eu sei que não é fácil organizar um evento como
este. Foi um carnaval muito gostoso em um lugar super legal. What a
great space for a party like this. Que pena a festa ter que terminar
mais cedo. Eu adorei a Marchinha Medley. These are the songs I
remember dancing to in my carnaval days in Brazil 18 yrs ago. So much
fun! I hope it was worth it for you. Um grande abraço. --Alessandra ___________________________________________________________________________________________

Oi Roberto,

Tudo bem? I’ve been meaning to write to let you know that I really enjoyed your performance at the Acadia. We’ve never met, but I was part of the “Sonho Meu” quartet that joined in (I love that song). I think you met my friends Verónica (from Argentina) and Kelly (from Brazil) at your party following the performance. I had to go to a bachlorette party (ugh) after so I didn’t make it to your party. Anyway, I look forward to the concert on the 21st. I spent year of 2000 in Brazil teaching English, and I’ve been feeling suadades ever since! I’ve been lucky enough to have visited a few times since then, but it’s never enough, so it’s nice to see your group playing the Brazilian songs that I know and love, so I can remember a bit of Brazil. Look forward to meeting you,

Betsy Hedstrom

Hi Robert,

Thanks again for your awesome music last night. All of you!
We really enjoyed it. I haven't heard a George Benson
piece in a long time... I am a great fan.

Loved the Jimmy Hendricks, and the Thrill is gone, Santana,
and all your originals... The whole selection of tunes was
exciting.
