A Note from Susan

My dear singers,

Wow!  Wow!!  And again I say – WOW!!!  What a wonderful weekend of concerts we had!  You were truly spectacular, as I’m sure you could tell by the reaction of all three of our audiences.  You sang with energy, with commitment, and with passion.  Even in the face of unbearable heat, you were true professionals.  We have had a terrific year.  You have grown tremendously both technically and musically, and I couldn’t be more proud of you!

Many, many thanks to everyone who made this weekend a success.  A special thank you to the stage crew for the “riser schlepping” you did at St. Paul’s sanctuary/sauna.

A quick note about auditions – Tuesday we will be in the SANCTUARY at Ingomar.  Wednesday we will be in the music office downstairs.  For those of you who did not sing the Pops Concert, just bring something to sing for me.  (No stress – it can be the National Anthem, Amazing Grace, etc. – just something to give me a chance to hear your voice.)

Again, congratulations on three terrific Pops concerts!  I feel very blessed to be a part of the PCC family.

Have a safe, enjoyable, relaxing summer. 

Love you all,

Susan
