The crowd was buzzing with excitement, convinced it must be Jamie Noelle.

Only Jamie Noelle could infuse such rich, full-bodied emotion into a performance; only she could master both the rhythm and the power so seamlessly; only she could bring out the majestic grandeur of the piece in its entirety.

Jamie Noelle was here!
