Early Years
“Sonja Sepúlveda grew up in an all-musical family. Everyone sang or played an instrument such as guitars, fiddles, mandolins, piano or organ. She gave private piano recitals starting at age 10 and sang in school choirs from the first grade. Later she danced in a dance company and spent a decade doing musicals for community theater which led her to overseeing the choral music and appearing in the ABC miniseries “North and South.” Growing up in the church, Sonja became the church organist at 13 and still finds church music an anchor in her life. Teaching music in public schools from elementary to high school allowed her to find her calling and true passion for choral music.”
