Singing From Our Hearts to Yours Since 1937
Summer Group Vocal Lessons
July 8th, 22nd, 29th, & Aug. 8th
Lessons start Monday, July 8 at 7pm
Messiah Lutheran Church, Longmont
Total Cost: $50 for All 4 Sessions
Heather Romig, a local voice instructor, is partnering with the Longmont Chorale and will be leading a 4-session class this summer during the Chorale’s usual hiatus. Heather is a seasoned and expert voice instructor – one of her former adult students has said that Heather knew exactly how to tailor her instruction for his specific voice and gave him feedback that greatly helped his singing. This is, in fact, her specialty as stated on her website:
“My specialized interests are the student’s specific learning styles and personal goals. My master’s thesis was on this very topic, and I implement the studies and results of this into my teaching for effective playing and singing.“
This will be an excellent opportunity to take time to grow as a singer for an INCREDIBLE value – if you were to take private voice lessons from any local instructor for the same amount of time, you would be paying a minimum of $360. The total cost for all 4 sessions is only $50.

Special Announcement Regarding our March, April, and May Concerts
Our Spring 2020 Concerts Will Not Be Held at This Time
Dear Longmont Chorale audience members,
Due to new CDC guidelines regarding those in vulnerable age groups and/or having underlying health issues being urged to avoid large public gatherings, we have made the difficult decision to end our season, effective immediately. This includes the Viva Voce concert in April.
Please read the update posted on Thursday, 3/06/2020 on the CDC website here:
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/specific-groups/high-risk-complications.html
As much as we all love singing together and for our audience, we need to follow the recommendation to avoid large gatherings to protect everyone’s health.
Please watch our website, social media, and your email for more information.
We hope you will follow the practices listed by health authorities like the CDC and WHO. Stay well, and we’ll be in touch again soon.
Take care,
