Here are some recent responses from our audience survey about this year’s Festival.

Tell us about an Ojai Festival experience this year that you found to be particularly meaningful.

- After an Ojai performance, your ability to listen and comprehend what you hear increases dramatically.

- Although in general I am not a huge piano fan, I found Eric Huebner's interpretation of Vingt Regards to be breathtakingly beautiful (if a bit long).

- As a lifelong Zappa freak, I thank you very much for the evening of Zappa music and the symposium. That was great!

- Ashish Khan - I am an Ojai resident and devotee of Indian classical music and loved having a favorite locally.

- Benjamin's "Into the Little Hll" gave me chills, brought back memories of reading/hearing the story as a child; wonderful moral.

- Brought 4 friends to the 11 AM Sat 6/12 piano concert to celebrate my BIRTHDAY! The little gopher who popped his head up near our picnic was such a treat. Could never happen anywhere but Libbey Park!

- Eric Huebner's recital was fantastic. I loved the quality of attention and devotion he brought to his playing, as well as his technical and musical excellence.

- I am looking forward to the Ojai Music Festival each year!!! Throughout of my 32-years-or-so attendance I have learned so much about, especially, contemporary classical music. This year, I just cannot stop talking about George Benjamin to my friends!

- I loved the Zappa concert because the music was new to me and not what I expected from Zappa.

- Insights provided by Ara & Christopher again drew me into the music & the performers; also enjoyed the community atmosphere of Aashish Khan's outdoor performance of Ragas in the Arcade. And to look around & reminisce and contemplate the new physical changes...and still miss Betty Freeman.
