a note from our artistic director
Our Artistic Director, Susan Chrzanowski, wrote a beautiful message about the joy & power of singing for our Spring Concert Program. Here’s a short quote and you can read the entire message below.
“There is something truly extraordinary about what we create together each week. For a few hours, we breathe as one, listen intently, move with purpose, and vocalize with awareness—not only hearing pitch but feeling sound in its most physical form: frequency, vibration, energy. We bring to life texts that touch the heart—perhaps clutch the heart—and in doing so, we connect deeply with ourselves and each other.”
