Joining Mix Choir has been an incredible experience; the welcoming community and exposure to different genres of music have truly enriched my life. Suzanne’s immense talent and passion for music make every rehearsal an inspiring and joyous occasion.

This is the choir to make and be with friends, have fun, learn something new, laugh, feel wonder, and step out of your comfort zone in an atmosphere of love and safety. It is so joyful to bask in Suzanne’s aura, and to feel proud for helping to create something beautiful. By the way, I don’t read music but I’m learning!
