Do You Love to Sing? Join the Leavenworth Village Voices

If you have music in your heart and a song on your lips, the Leavenworth Village Voices (LVV) would like to invite you to join us at the annual Season Opener Picnic on Monday, August 14, at 6:30 pm in Lions Club Park in Leavenworth. The picnic is  a great way for inquiring singers to learn more about the choir and a fun gathering for choir members to reunite ahead of a new season. LVV members will provide the food and beverages, while prospective members are invited to attend as guests—and to bring their singing voices and questions.

LVV is a community, non-profit choir founded in 1982 that performs during the Christmas season. Members love to share the joy and peace of Christmas music while contributing to Leavenworth’s Bavarian theme and festive atmosphere. There are no auditions and formal music training is not required. It is helpful to know how to read music, but not essential. Sheet music and practice tracks are provided to help singers learn their parts and practice between weekly rehearsals.

In addition to its popular “Christmas in the Mountains” concert series, the choir sings at Leavenworth’s festivals and carols in small groups downtown, contributing to the joyous, holiday atmosphere. Throughout the holiday season, the choir also performs in private concerts for bus tours and hotel guests and entertains at assisted living facilities and charity events. It is truly a community choir.

Director Mindy Wall–now in her third season with LVV–expertly guides the choir with professionalism gleaned from many years of experience teaching middle and high school choirs, as well as voice and musical theater. LVV also welcomes back Leah Moats as our accompanist.  Leah is a multi-talented musician, playing and performing with orchestras, theaters, choirs, and churches throughout the region, including as LVV’s first accompanist.  

LVV rehearsals take place on Monday evenings, from 7-9 p.m. at the Leavenworth Church of the Nazarene, located at 111 Ski Hill Drive in Leavenworth. Rehearsals begin on August 21. For additional information, visit the Leavenworth Village Voices website at www.leavenworthvillagevoices.org or on Facebook, where you will find concert dates and more information about the choir. We hope to see you at the picnic and that you’ll consider joining this fun, passionate group!
