"As a speaker coach who has observed Simone's exceptional talents at TEDxSalzburg, I wholeheartedly recommend him. His violin performances are not only technically superb but emotionally captivating, weaving stories through each note. Moreover, as a speaker, Simone possesses a rare ability to make classical music accessible and engaging. His presentations are a blend of eloquent articulation and genuine enthusiasm, resonating with audiences of all backgrounds. Simone's unique combination of musical artistry and compelling oratory is truly transformative, making any event memorable."

"You gave such an inspiring speech yesterday. You presented music in a way I never thought about, although I love music. And from your expression, I could tell how much you love what you do. So thank you for that!"

"I attended TEDxSalzburg where Simone held a keynote about the power of music. Incorporating the violin and truly speaking from his creative heart for me, this was the speech of the day! Very well done. "

"I had not planned to write to you at first, but now I think - why not? Maybe it is cool information for you that is nice to know, that you changed my life. As you maybe can guess, I was at the TEDx Talks a couple of days ago. Honestly, I have to say to you that I never had much interest in violins and I hardly listened to classical music. One guy called Simone Schermi absolutely changed my view on classical music, especially on violines. I was - as you said - the type of friend who never wanted to go to the orchestra or listen to a classical music piece. I really felt how much energy this beautiful instrument has and how much energy it produces. Like the tourbine of an airplane, this TED Talk really changed my view of classical music. I am deeply impressed by the energy and talent people have. [...]"

"It was a fabulous event and you performed fabulously"

"In the meantime, I can recommend that you continue to share your talent and enthusiasm, I think especially in formats where there are mainly people who have little contact with classical music. The applause after your talk was by far one of the loudest and you picked up the audience exactly where it was needed, conveyed emotion and made us all think. Thank you for this inspiring moment."

I was at TED x Salzburg (sat right at the front) and was overwhelmed by your talent and energy.
