I found myself looking up often during my time with you and finding joy in seeing the faces of people from age 8 - 80 in one choral performance. How amazing is that! You represent what music should be and that is people of all ages and abilities coming together to create a unique and special experience through singing.

…not your typical concert experience, but [rather] full of raucous joy. The text of the work flows with a natural ease, and the music is sincere and without any pretense. This is a winning combination…

After a year of great loss and distress, singing with DCC has given me back my joy, and motivation to move forward in my life. I am so grateful to be making beautiful music with this amazing group. Thank you!

...Being part of a 100-person group that is truly welcoming to each and every individual no matter their experiences, resources, or talents is both unique and uplifting.  Long-lasting friendships and support systems are formed.  The whole far exceeds the sum of the parts.  -  all this while making high-quality music and enjoying life-experiences none of us could have guessed would come our way.

I have always loved to sing, and when I found out about DCC, I was delighted to come join. It has become one of the highlights of my life...For me, music is therapeutic and I always go home from rehearsal feeling happy.  I have made friends with quite a few of the members and all have enriched my life with their care and friendship.  I hope to continue with them as long as I can still sing!  

I have learned so much about singing this year and have so much more to learn. My soul has been fed this year. I wanted to thank you for the opportunity to sing. The DCC group is so incredibly talented, supportive, and wonderful.

It was a wonderful experience. I really appreciate everything and I look forward to working with you all in the future. Thanks again. Peace and blessings to you and the group.

The Alzheimer’s Stories performance was equally powerful for both the audience and the performers. You made such an indelible artistic event possible for the chorus, orchestra, soloists, audience members, the conductor, the composer, and for the many who have been touched directly or indirectly by Alzheimer’s.

I am such a lucky and blessed composer to have had my work performed by such wonderful and talented people.

I could not have been more excited by the artistry, work ethic, and passion for music of your wonderful singers.
