C.K.M.S. Choir going to the Na Leo Pili Mai Choral Festival

If you haven’t heard by now, on April 13 & 14, 2013,Kauai’s very own Chiefess Kamakahelei Middle School Choir will be representing its island at the 19^th Annual Na Leo Pili Mai Choral Festival on Oahu. This group of fine young singers will be lead by Choir Teacher Julianne Hiu whose hope is to instill the love of music and the arts in her students.

Julianne has been an integral part of the music community here on Kauai for a few years now and I have been fortunate enough to perform with her in several of Kauai’s musical groups. Have I mentioned that she is also an excellent clarinetist? Besides being an educator and a vocalist, Julianne is also a top class musician showing that she has many talents that she offers to her Kauai community.

Last week I had the chance to talk with Julianne and askher a few questions about CKMS Chorus’ trip to the Na Leo Pili Mai Coral Festival.
