“Singing is so much more than just music making. It’s helping children learn to respect themselves and one another, to set a standard of excellence that they can see and demonstrate every day, no matter what they’re doing. When the students sing from their hearts, it reaches the hearts of the audience. We teach them the importance of singing with absolute sincerity and not for show.”

~ Barbara Berner, Artistic Director
