"I got to see The Christine Spero Group and their tribute show "Spero Plays Nyro" this past Sunday at the Sellersville Theatre. Sadly I never saw Laura Nyro perform, so this was an exceptional evening for me. Christine obviously loves Laura! It shines through her performance, and she has the chops as a singer and pianist to do Laura and her music proud! And her 3-piece group of musicians were exceptional! I had the pleasure to meet and speak with Christine after the show and she is friendly and accessible and SO happy to be singing Laura's songs. And in Laura's style! "Reimagining Laura?" Puh-lease! Thanks Christine for being a fan of Laura and HER way! Why reimagine perfection?"
"I was at your “Spero sings Nyro” show at the Sellersville Theatre. I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed it. I was deeply moved. I have been deeply influenced in my own music-making by Laura and was so glad that you did such a superb job in bringing her music to life again. You stayed close enough to the original to give folks a good sense of her work, while also adding your own unique and often more sophisticated touch. I feel very strongly that Laura’s music needs a wider, hearing and you did a great job in conveying that. You are also superb musicians in your own right. I have enjoyed the two CD’s I bought at the concert: We Call it Music and My Spanish Dream. I can’t wait for the Spero Sings Nyro CD!" Phillip Bennett / A Fan
