to the Soundings Studio for musical, choral and vocal training.
If you enjoy music and singing and would like to
- Discover the hidden potential in your voice
- Join with other dedicated amateurs in the joy of singing
- Enter into the world of reading and understanding the language of music
I urge you to take a few minutes and investigate what the Soundings Studio
has to offer you.
The Soundings Studio, along with the choirs of the Soundings Choral Group was created to provide the dedicated amateur musician, at any age, high-quality training in basic musicianship, choral performance and vocal technique and performance. I have many years of musical, choral and vocal experience to share with you.

Choral Opportunities
for the 2013-2014 season
The choral opportunites listed below are motivated by a passion to:
- raise up a new generation of musically-literate singers who can recognize, appreciate and demonstrate expressive and beautiful choral singing;
- nurture those who carry with them fond memories of choral experiences and want to add them;
- serve our community by giving the gift of choral music to a culture always in need of and often in search of honest expressions of beauty.
All three choirs/ensembles of the Soundings Choral Group are welcoming NEW MEMBERS for the 2013-2014 season. If you are interested in membership contact the director at info@soundingsstudio.com.
