Canadian Tulip Festival

October 20, 2005

Dear Ana,

The Canadian Tulip Festival's 2005 concert line up was a huge success.  Part of the success must be accredited to musicians like you.

I want to thank you for your brilliant performance on the Canadian Tulip Festival's Main Stage.  Performing on the same bill with Sarah Harmer, Jeremy Fisher and Nathan Wiley would be intimidating to most musicians.  However, your set swelled with the comfort and confidence of a stage-staggering professional.  And as if that was not enough, your beautiful set of music was a striking addition to the Festival's line up.  With a Festival line up that included the likes of Hawksley Workman, Joel Plaskett, Ron Sexsmith, The Tea Party and many other first-rate Canadian musicians, Ana Miura fit in perfectly.  It is no wonder you are one of Ottawa's most respected musicians. 

Thank you once again for helping to make the 2005 Canadian Tulip Festival concert line up a success.  I look forward to working with you in the future. 

Sincerely,

Tom O'Connor

Artistic Director Canadian Tulip Festival
