Dear Elsa Rojas Márquez and José Giménez,
On behalf of Palme's Performing Society and all Russian community of Vancouver we would like to thank you for participating in the "6th Annual Russian Christmas in Vancouver"!
This year we have invited performers from different communities and this turned out to be a major multicultural celebration that is now recognized city wide. This is major win for Russian community and all multicultural Vancouver.
Your performance and your support made this event. Thank you once again for making this possible your participation and support is highly appreciated!

If you're in search of an act that's heart-warming and energetic at the same time or simply great fun or anything in between, this lady and gent duo are your "guys". I had the pleasure of hearing/watching them last night at a house party and am definitely considering asking if they wouldn't mind performing at mine. I can confidently vouch for the fact they brought alive all the souls that had been asleep, including mine :) Jose is a wiz on his guitar and Elsa is spectacularly and visibly passionate about her art. They truly are a great act together. Follow them whichever venue they're playing or plan your next house party around them; you won't be disappointed.

"It was probably the very best Passions fundraiser ever! As guests arrived they were entertained by performers from Circus Aerials, hanging from vivid red silk high above accompanied by the lively tango music of Sangre Morena which included a hot salsa performance by Provence Chef Alessandra Quaglia...."

Dear Elsa and Jose,
Thank you so much for performing at the Summer Music Series.
We had many, many wonderful comments about your beautiful music. And you are at the top of the list for next year too! ...Just to let you know that Saturday was the most successful day of the series so far... I think a large part of that was your music attracting people to come in.
Thanks again Elsa and Jose.
Warmest regards,

...So the food is fine and the service is fine but overall I'd definitely go back and recommend Dona Cata to friends because the whole package is very good: the Friday and Saturday night music, food, service, ambiance ... I really enjoyed it.

Dear Elsa and Jose,
Thank you again for sharing your passion for music by entertaining all of us that were dining late after 9:30 at Dona Cata's last night. It was more than kind, and exciting for us that you did this. Having arrived late, because of a very unfortunate accident for a bus passenger that had sat across from us, the passion and hope contained in the songs helped us redirect our thoughts to great food, and joyful times.
I can't thank you enough.
Gracias,
Ed Fontaine
