WELCOME to the Lifelong Repertoire & Resources page.\u00a0 I hope the information here helps you and your fellow singers to achieve your musical and personal goals.\u00a0 Florida has remarkable excellence in choral music, and I am thankful that YOU continue to elevate the art in our state.\u00a0 Chorus participation is not just for youthful academic endeavors, it is how we continue to develop relationships, express emotions, and learn more about ourselves in life\u2019s journey.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Below you will find a list of festivals in Florida that may be of interest to singers in your Community Choirs or Music in Worship participants.\u00a0 Please write to me if you would like yours added to the list!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
On our Community Choir page you will find a listing of ensembles in our state.\u00a0 Consider joining or supporting these choirs.\u00a0 Contact their directors and schedule an exchange!\u00a0 If you\u2019re seeing this from another state, consider bringing your choir to this lovely state for some music making (and a little fun in the sun too).\u00a0 Participate in the festivals we host in the state and together we will make the world a little smaller.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Contact me if I can include your choir or your ensemble\u2019s events to our list.\u00a0 And I look forward to seeing you at our annual ACDA conference in the fall!<\/p>\n
