R&S WOMENS CHOIRS
Hello, and welcome.
It is my pleasure to be the Women's Choirs Repertoire and Standards chair for ICDA. I have served the ICDA board in various ways over the years and I am excited to serve in this new way. I enjoy very much working with treble voices and women's ensembles at Decorah High School, and I am excited to promote women's choirs throughout the state. Please let me know how I can be of help to you.
