Appreciations
The authenticity of the things that the
group presents in its shows, their diversity, the obvious professional approach
has turned Doina Timisului throughout the years into the most authorized prompters
of the Romanian folklore. For the members of this ensemble the success that
was to come in Drummondville would have been very much assured by their rich
professional experience as well as by the fact that for the second time they
would be in front of the Canadian public. And success they had! I could notice
it among the hundreds spectators which bearing the terrible heat applauded their
performance
"The Candle of Montreal"(Canada), July 2002
By use of dynamics, professionalism and
artistry you have enchanted us and you have borne testimony to the beauty of
your folklore. We thank you for all these unforgettable moments
Rene Frechette, general and artistic director of Mondial des Cultures Drummondville
(Canada), July 2002
Their performance is perfectly worked
out and everything is presented to highlight the virtuosity of the performers
" La liberte" (Switzerland), August 2001
You should be proud of your group and
undoubtedly you can tell them that they were the best group taking part in the
festival of Ronda, this year. The artistic quality was of the highest degree,
but for us, human quality was important above all, an element which does exist
among the members of the group, and you can be proud by each one of them, because
their behavior was outstanding
Adela Ramirez, Director of Gala Folklorico Internacional de Ronda (Spain),
November 2000
The wonderful costumes the artistic capacity
of your dancers, the harmony and discipline in their moves and the authenticity
of the tradition of your country are some of the elements that we wish to point
out and which impressed the audience of our city. You have proved yourselves
to be excellent ambassadors of your country and thanks to you we have now formed
a magnificent picture of the popular culture and tradition of your country.
We are thrilled and happy for our common collaboration and we sincerely hope
that it will be continued in the future as well...
Dr. Apostolos Gatzoyas, Director of International Folk Festival Ioannina
(Greece), July 2000
I want to especially thank you for your
collaboration with our organization. You represent a perfect ensemble. A good
orchestra, good dancers, a perfect leadership. We sincerely congratulate you

We will cherish the beautiful memories
after our meetings with "Doina Timisului" ensemble, a genuine cultural
ambassador of Romania, which has presented to us a spectacular and authentic
picture of the traditional music and dances from Banat as well as from the neighborhood
areas. We were similarly impressed by the beauty of their costumes and by the
professional stature of the Romanian musicians. The participants in the probation
period in folklore from Cornwall, coming from Canada and U.S.A., have very much
appreciated your effort and willingness to share with them your folklore
