MixChoir Testimonial
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!
