One of the things that struck me in rehearsal was the intergenerationality of the choir. Being in the same room, that many young people, that many us of a certain age who may or not be young anymore makes a difference. There are only so many places where I think that can happen these days and I think some magic can come, some understanding can come from that. 

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!

Choir is such a fun way to face any stage fear, because you are singing with your friends.

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

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.

Joining DCC first as its Treasurer and now also a singer has given me purpose in life after my retirement from my career in education.  Being a part of an organization with such passion, commitment and dedication fills my heart.

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