CCC Welcomes New Singers
After four days of competitive auditions in July, I'm thrilled to welcome the following new singers to the Chicago Chamber Choir for our 16th season. It's so exciting to see and hear the amazing talent that comes to auditions, and it's difficult to turn away strong singers and musicians. This is a good problem to have, though, and it only means that this year's ensemble promises to be the best in our 15-year history.
CCC welcomes the following new singers to the choir:
Sopranos: Caroline Eichler and Cristin Colvin
Altos: Toria Burrell, Margaret Jungels, and Joanna Tomassoni
Tenors: Kurtis Ellison-Williams
Basses: Trent Stewart, Justin Tuffy, and Nathan Waller
