Wow, thank you so much for sharing this wonderful program. Maestro Maull is a true master of oral presentation and explanation. Clear and engaging, friendly but challenging. He drew in the on-site crowd – and me – to think and listen. I resonated with the way he “taught” the crowd through normal conversational speech … thanks again for expanding my consciousness!
