Welcome!

Welcome back! This blog is an experiment by your not-so-tech-savvy choir director... so I guess that means it can only get better! It is designed to be a helpful tool for communication between you, me, parents, alumni, etc. It is my aim to save time, confusion, heartache, and really open up a dialogue about some of the music we sing. Sometimes, it might be your homework to look at this blog- to fill out paperwork (sent back only to me, no worries!), print permission slips, transfer rehearsal notes, listen to amazing versions of music we are working on, get the nuts & bolts for upcoming gigs, whatever. I intend to keep this blog informational, current, and celebratory. If you have pictures, quotes, links, etc. you wish to add, e-mail them to me and you just might see them here!

A new year means new music, new experiences, new sounds, and new friends. No two choirs are ever the same and that is part of the beauty we create. I can't wait for this year's journey!

I leave you with a quote from my mom's favorite Beatle:

I love to hear a choir. I love the humanity to see the faces of real people devoting themselves to a piece of music. I like the teamwork. It makes me feel optimistic about the human race when I see them cooperating like that.
-Paul McCartney b. 1942
