LEADER BIO
PRODUCERS
Kindred Spirits and Lovers of Choral Singing,
Nearly two decades ago I was lucky enough to participate in a choir tour to
London. The sights and sounds of that magical trip are as vivid today as
they were then. I am honored and excited to return to this special city in
2021 with new friends and colleagues.
As we lay the framework for this choir festival I am reminded about
the power of an international choir tour. Yes, our travels will take us to
marvelous destinations as we trace history and explore treasured places.
However, our time abroad will hold much more than can be laid out in an
itinerary, for as we sing and journey together we will be transformed...moved
and changed through the power of music. Each day will hold experiences
that will last a lifetime and at the heart of each memory will be the faces of
kindred spirits and the sounds of a song shared.
We are fortunate to be collaborating with our friends at KIconcerts. They
have established a well-earned reputation for crafting marvelous and
thoughtful choir tours that are executed with great care and professionalism.
Choirs in the Colorado region may have the opportunity to perform our
festival piece in Denver prior to our travels to London.
Optional extensions are available throughout the United Kingdom and
Ireland.
Grateful thanks for your kind consideration. I look forward to dreaming and
planning together!
Dr. Kyle Fleming
Artistic Director & Conductor
