About Us

The writers at The Elgin Review have been active performers and listeners in the local concert halls, as well as school and church music circles since 2000.  We appreciate the talents of artists of all ages and abilities, and seek to bring their performances to the attention of larger audiences.  We also believe that respectful critiques can be helpful to artists, ensembles and organizations seeking to improve their programming.
