References from:

Matthew Fox, OP, Author of Original Blessing and Creation Spirituality, Oakland, California, USA

"Betty has a great gift of combining the spiritual quest with artistic expression. I consider this a special charism at this stage in church and social history when so many persons need to have their creativity awakened and encouraged".

(Self-understanding)

Sister Ancilla, Supervisor of Benedictine Community, Bingen, Germany

"You gave me so many impulses and you really did what you intended with your songs; you made me happy when singing them".

Michael Vinten, New Zealand assistant composer and conductor, Wellington Sinfonia (orchestra), Cantoris (choir)

"Betty is a singular composer of song and religious music which springs from her deep, yet not always orthodox faith. She is an experimenter and motivator for whom the words "it doesn't work" don't enter her vocabulary".

Jack Tillar, composer of TV scores - The Making of ET; Raiders of the Lost Ark; Starwars; etc. EMMY and Academy Award winner

"Betty enjoys "staying current" with ALL the world and helping tend to its spiritual conscious. Music is her passion; humanity is her compassion".
