★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My daughters have been in this choir since they were in kindergarten - (and my oldest just graduated grade 12 this year). I can’t say enough good things about the Calgary Girls Choir. The quality of music is excellent and the education they have received, not only in music, but also personal growth, friendship, and self confidence has kept us signing them up year after year.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was able to be a part of the Calgary Girls Choir for 11 years, and it was one of the best experiences as a young girl. Ms Q is amazing, she has so much expertise and nurtures each of her girls to be their best - both as people and in music! The rehearsals, the training camps, and the tours are great memories for me and provided great formation. I'm so grateful for my time with the choir!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I started singing with Ms. Q at age 7 and was with her all the way through school to age 17. I am so thrilled to be able to sing with her again in Espressa as an adult. She is a genius at creating beautiful blend and tone in her choirs and I have missed that in other adult choirs I have been in over the years. She is a magnetic and natural teacher.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Choir was such a lovely addition to my schedule this year. Sometimes it was hard to make myself login after a long stressful day at work, but I was always so glad I did. The songs were great - just the right level of difficulty. Challenging enough to be interesting, but not hard enough to be scary. The virtual choir was a cool experience. I was so happy to have been a part of that. So excited to hopefully sing in person next year! Thanks for the experience!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Choir and singing has always been my happy place, so even if my day was bad or I just wasn’t feeling good I would always get to choir rehearsal and forget all about it. I would put myself fully into the music. Choir has also taught me a tremendous amount of responsibility, hard work and dedication that I now have for the future. I am very thankful to the Calgary Girls Choir for this.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I am so grateful for the many years that I sang in the Calgary Girls Choir. Choir taught me to appreciate music and to sing properly with confidence. I have gained many friends from choir, and really felt a sense of community. When I was going through some rough times, I knew I could always count on choir to be the one stable thing in my life, and it served as a good outlet for some of my emotions. I now use music a lot to help me deal with things, and I owe that to the Calgary Girls Choir. The choir helped me to realize the true power of music, and I can now integrate that into my life to use.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My daughter joined the CGC 4 years ago, in her grade 9 year, and was warmly welcomed by the choristers and director right away. She had dabbled in private voice lessons for a few months beforehand, but she felt intimidated in a one-on-one setting. Not so with CGC! Her love of music, her singing ability and her confidence exploded very quickly after joining choir. Many of her favourite memories are linked to choir, from weekly rehearsals, which were always a highlight of her week, to touring to Wales, and singing at Alberta Ballet's Nutcracker. Nothing can compare to her positive experience with this choir!
