Why do you love to perform?
We love performing because it's such a great opportunity for our ensemble to come together as one voice and inspire those who are listening to us. It's also a sort of validation of all the work that we've put into preparing our pieces! Our goal as a group is to achieve a high level of unity when we're singing so that instead of being a group of 5, we're like one unified voice, entering and exiting together. We chose "Take Me Home" because it's a beautiful piece and very emotionally powerful when sung with meaning.
