From the moment she began, the atmosphere lifted and the feedback we received was overwhelmingly positive. Her vocals were brilliant, her presence warm and engaging, and she connected beautifully with everyone who attended. One of the standout moments of the night was her stunning rendition of Moon River, which had the whole crowd captivated in the water and on land.
