Alyssa C.9 Year SCS Singer!
Children's Choir Program I am a senior at Bio-med Science Academy in Rootstown, Ohio. This year will be my ninth and final year in the Children's Choir Program! This program has provided me with many wonderful opportunities, such as singing at Carnegie hall and the 2017 memorial day parade in Washington, D.C. Outside of choir I enjoy drawing, painting, photography, and travelling. |
Tim L.17 Year SCS Singer!
Metropolitan Chorus A child of the '60s, my path to Beethoven, Brahms and Bach was via the Beach Boys, Beatles and Byrds. Time spent in Borromeo Seminary and as a counselor at Camp Christopher deepened my appreciation of joining voices in song whether it was in chapel or around a campfire. Married to the most patient Patti Longville for 45 years, retired from the Summit County Board of MR/DD, I have relished my time participating in the programs of the Summit Choral Society with such gifted singers. Can't wait to point my young grandsons in that direction in a few short years. Personal goal as a singer? To someday make it through an entire concert without my bow tie becoming crooked. |
MaryAnn B.N.7 Year SCS Singer!
Metropolitan Chorus "My life is always happiest when I am part of a musical group. I grew up in SEOhio, making music in church and school. This includes my 4 years at Ohio University. After college sang with a Sweet Adeline choir ( ladies singing barbershop style harmony), which also sang at my wedding. When I married and moved to our NEOhio family farm, I did 8 years with Ravenna Community Choir. When I retired from teaching in 2016 I was delighted to have time to begin singing with Summit Choral Society. Am also part of the Akron Symphony Chorus and the annual concert of Gospel Meets Symphony. For me, one of life's greatest pleasures is having an excellent piece of music, a skilled leader, and a choir of terrific voices around me, making the magic that only live music can do." |
