Congratulations on the first anniversary of FANFAIRE! I am still in awe of the tremendous amount of research and work you have put into this project. And I find your dedication and devotion to opera, the art form that I love best, very moving in a directly personal way. Thanks to you many hundreds of people have discovered THE CONQUISTADOR who would otherwise have known nothing about it. You have spread word about my opera in a way that I could not have done, and I will be forever grateful. I wish you continued success in your work. Congratulations again from my family and from me. Please know that I mean every word above. All best wishes, Myron
