Austrian Quiet

The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.

Ave Verum

My choir went to Austria to sing in the Summa Cum Laude Youth Choral Festival. 
We came home with a first place placement in the Mixed Choir Category.
This is what we sound like, sometimes.

monastic beauty


Traveling to Europe is like stepping back in time. 
It's this world where two very different universes manage to co-exist.
We long for the stories of the past as much as we strive for the excitement of the future.
The old and the new are all jumbled together into a Picasso portrait that reflects the most beautiful part of the collective human soul.
