“What a terrific documentary! This is exactly the type of film that our KIDS FIRST! Film Festival venue partner love. Educational and entertaining! Ever wonder about how African American music evolved? The Quilt: A Living History of African American Music provides an entertaining and engaging way to learn about the history and influence of Black music.”

“I thought it was good how she [Cynthia] explained the music, showed examples, and took you through the journey. The following day, I went to see Herbie Hancock and was able to apply what she talked about to the event.”

“After having had the chance to watch, I have no doubt ‘The Quilt’ will only have continued success in distribution and beyond. The art and craft of storytelling on display is outstanding, the production values are so strong and the subject at heart is clearly imperative. Congratulations to Musical Bridges Around the World and to all of our wonderful San Antonio cast and crew involved!”

“I had a lump in my throat the entire time and was moved to tears. Everything from the content to production set the perfect tone. Much of the music was from my own youth and brought back memories of experiences and dancing alone in my room to the radio.”
