Choir Matrix is a community women's vocal ensemble sponsored by Consonare Choral Community that is devoted to building community among all women and empowering women in Mansfield and surrounding communities through singing.
Choir Matrix, directed by Sarah Kaufold, approaches quality choral music, including the promotion of female composers, within an engaging, accepting, and encouraging environment focused on healthy vocal technique and refinement of musical skills.
This choir is non-auditioned and open to all self-identified women and we encourage
women with children to join us as we have a tandem youth choral program
(Consonare Youth Choirs) that rehearses at the same time and location.
In order to promote inclusion, we...
-
offer choral opportunities where all singers are welcome and no audition is necessary
-
strive to offer participation in these community choral programs at a low cost*
-
provide additional music learning resources and offer extra rehearsals for new singers
-
divide our choral season into short sessions with the intention of allowing those
singers with busy schedules the opportunity to participate
Singers can participate in one or all of the sessions in any given choral season (September through June). Once you become a member of the Choir Matrix community, you will always be welcome to return if you miss a session.
