We had a great night last night in Birmingham, Alabama . Needless to say, it was a night for us to remember! Since we live way down south, we don't go to as many concerts as we would like, but we go whenever possible to the ones in our area and many in the NY area. We are already looking forward to the next one.

I saw Linda in concert for the first time on November 6, 2003, and it was so much more than I ever expected it to be. Linda was wonderful, and hearing her sing live was so incredible. She was so gracious to her fans after the show. Even though she needed to get on the road, she stood there and signed autographs and had her picture taken with anyone who wanted one, myself included. Thanks to Linda, that is a night I will never forget and it will not be the last concert of Linda's that I attend. Thank you so much!!!

Hello! My name is Kaitlyn Lusk and I am a 14 year old singer from State College, Pennsylvania. I have recently completed my very first album and am living a dream that I'm sure many young singers must have. On this album (which is called No Looking Back and can be found at KaitlynLusk.com), I was lucky enough to work and record with one of Linda's arrangers, Kim Scharnberg, and some of her incredible musicians. David Finck (bass), Clint deGanon (drums), Stephanie Cummins (cello) and Peter Calo (guitars) all contributed greatly. In addition, Jack Murphy wrote a beautiful lyric for one of the songs and sang background vocals with his wife, Jan, on another. Besides writing all of the arrangements, Kim also produced the album. While working on the album, I had my professional debut with the Hershey Pops last August and sang with the Baltimore and Owensboro (KY) Symphonies in holiday concerts. A big highlight among many highlights last year was when I was the featured soloist with the Boston Pops in their annual New Year's Eve concert. Keith Lockhart conducted and I sang songs that Kim arranged for full orchestra. It was a thrill beyond belief!

I started listening to Linda when I was about 9 years old, and my sisters and I (and I have 4 sisters!) would sing along with all of her songs. It was pretty loud! Last February Kim heard a rough demo of me singing two songs, and he invited me to come sing for him in New York City and to attend Linda's Carnegie Hall concert with my dad. Not a bad first venue to see Linda live in concert! The concert was amazing and I met Linda briefly backstage that night. Then a few months ago I met Linda again after her concert in my hometown. She was so nice to my mother, my sisters and me when she came out dressed casually in jeans after the show. She talked with us and asked me how I liked working with Kim, etc.

It's hard to pick a favorite album of Linda's because there are so many things I like from each one. However, there is one song that really means a lot to me. One of my first major performances in front of an audience was at my middle school talent show just 2 years ago where I sang Linda's song, “Gold,” from CAMILLE CLAUDEL. The question of “Did I do anything? Did I make a difference?” was so poignant that I felt the song itself was waiting for other people to sing its heart wrenching lyric. Having heard Linda sing and perform “Gold,” I tried to grasp her perspective and expression only to discover that the song was so powerful and would be interpreted differently by every person who sang it. As small as it seems now, that talent show was one of the performances that really improved me as a performer and musician.

Last September I was lucky enough to be able to see Linda starring in CAMILLE CLAUDEL at the Goodspeed Theatre in Connecticut. Her voice, charisma and personality have inspired and taught me so much about performing, connecting with an audience, story telling and, most of all, being a musician.

I am so excited to have my first album completed and to be performing with such fabulous musicians and wonderful symphony orchestras. I also feel very fortunate to hopefully be following in the footsteps of someone I admire so greatly and to be working with some of the same people that she's been working with for years! Thanks, Linda!

Hi. My name is Karen Welthy and I met Linda for the first time on Valentine's Day after her show at the Proctor Theatre in Schenectady, New York. I am attaching the picture I most like of she and I. I remember sitting at our table at a restaurant called Yono's, one of the area's best. I was just sitting at my table, looking around the room when I realized Linda was already seated at the table next to us. It seemed like she had just appeared. There was no fanfare and no grand entrance. I don't know when she even arrived. She was seated with some local politicians (lucky them!). I met her later in the evening and asked her to sign my sheet music and some discs. I didn't want to overwhelm her with a lot to sign.

She was absolutely wonderful. She was upbeat, interested, friendly, and gracious. I am a musician and have been since I was six years old. I'm now thirty-three. I told her a little about my musical endeavors in piano and voice and the type of performing I do. There was a piano in the room and I would have loved to play for her but I didn't ask. As it turned out, one of the restaurant owners told us that Linda would have to leave soon. And she did, in order to get home to her family.

I think the greatest thrill I could ever have would be the opportunity to accompany her at one of her after concert dinner parties. So I guess I'll put that out there and see if the opportunity ever arises.

Thanks, Linda, for being so wonderful that night. I brought the picture of she and I into my office and have gotten several comments from people I work with on it, namely about her beauty. I like to tease them back and say that of course both have great teeth and lips, so we must be related! And then I proceed to tell them about her talent and how they should certainly go out and see her and buy her CDs. I also sang one of her songs, "Anything Can Happen," for my sister's wedding in October, 2003 and it was very well received.

Thanks to you folks at The Voice for offering a forum for fans to express to Linda their gratitude and amazement at her talent.
