My Mission

“Since singing is so good a thing, I wish all men would learn to sing.” This quote from the preface of William Byrd’s Psalms, Sonnets & Songs, published in 1588, exemplifies my teaching passion. Music is an integral part of life and the human experience. To teach someone music, is the opportunity to impact the mind and life of that individual and change it forever. I am totally committed to this mission, the art of teaching music, and to helping students understand how to apply knowledge and talent, because these two things are two of the most powerful tools in the world.

Thoughts from the Maestra

“I am grateful for the technology that allows us to continue on with a new creation of the virtual choir until the day comes when we can all stand together again, heartbeat to heartbeat, one breath, one emotion, one sound, one voice in the same room. I say that no matter how I can make it happen, I will continue because all choral singers shout together…

‘How can I keep from singing?’ Onward!”
