My wish for everyone, especially after this week – please take the time to share how much you care about those in your circle, both the family you have, and the family you choose in the friends and people around you. I continue to be grateful each and every day for our choir family, the trust you have in each other, and truly, the message of the music we are sharing with one another. That’s what it’s all about, and our choir family is one like none other in the grace, hope, and love we have in all of it.

For the solos – note that I am working to be mindful of everyone who has had recent solos in concert selections for our concerts, so pending all who comes out to audition, know that I am trying to spread opportunity based on who comes to audition!
