❄️ Once Upon an Enchanted Winter ❄️

Beginners Voice with Vocal Instructor Ms. McQueeney (soon to be Mrs. Ritter 💒🥰 - she is getting married!)

Join us for a magical new Group Voice class inspired by stories set in a snowy, enchanted kingdom—where shimmering ice and powerful songs bring fairytales to life.

This session explores music inspired by Nordic and Scandinavian folk music, blended with classic musical theater and modern pop-ballad styles. Singers will experience rich harmonies, epic melodies, and storytelling through music that captures the wonder, emotion, and adventure of a winter fairytale.

📅 Wednesdays
⏰ 4:30-6:00 PM
🎤 Ages 6-13

Families are invited to a special showcase on the last meeting date at 5:45 pm!

Let your child’s voice sparkle, soar, and shine in this enchanting vocal journey!
