      I attended this concert both nights. The first performance had some bugs, but were handled with grace and in no way deterred from the magical of the performances of the San Antonio Symphony and Donald Braswell along with Margaret Keys. I was totally spellbound as these two singers separately and together took to Broadway with their music. The second night performance was total perfection. Again I was spellbound. As I walked away I searched for words that would paint the picture and could not find them. Astounding, exceptional, extraordinary, sensational...yes all of these apply but just don't quite hit the mark. I traveled from Idaho to attend these performances with some very high expectations. I have to say I was not disappointed. They far exceeded anything I expected. I have to say the performances are unparalleled. Yes, that is the word...Unparalleled. These two could well be the next Michael Crawford and Sarah Brighton. Collapse

      I keep searching for words to describe the San Antonio Symphony's Braswell on Broadway shows I saw over the weekend. "Superb!" "Incredible!" "Terrific!" The shows were all of those, but more. Perhaps "glorious" describes them, or even "moving." Yes, "moving, " absolutely, but maybe what I am reaching for is "joyous." Yes, "joyous" says it best for me! I was left with a joy in my soul that resonated long after the last note was sung and the last bow taken. Donald Braswell and his guest, Irish soprano Margaret Keys, gave performances that set just the right tone, wowing and surpising those in the audience who had never heard them before. Mr. Braswell is a native of the San Antonio area, but somehow has not been well-known to local audiences . In my opinion that will not be the case after his exposure to a large and enthusiastic crowd of symphony-goers. His is a voice that is unsurpassed at conveying emotion and is one that immediately impresses the listener. I heard comments all around Collapse

      I came to San Antonio from Denver to see the Braswell on Broadway shows and attended both concerts. They were absolutely incredible. Donald Braswell is so talented and a great entertainer. Margaret Keys was an extra treat. I would see this concert over and over. I give it 5 stars. Collapse
