These past six years in Cantabile have been an incredible journey full of memorable moments and valuable learning experiences. Among the numerous pieces we've performed, "Let The Sunshine In," which we performed at the gala two years ago, holds a special place in my heart. We were able to bring so much energy to the piece with our clapping, our emotion, and our movement, truly drawing out its meaning; each time we sang it, I got goosebumps.

Cantabile has not only fostered artistic excellence and musicality but has also opened my eyes to the transformative power of music. Through song, dance, and expressive performances, we as musicians devote ourselves to restoring humanity, love, and compassion in a healing world. And so I am forever grateful for the lessons I've learned throughout and the friends I have made along the way during my time in Cantabile. I want to thank Elena, Jace, Lori, Megan, Jessica, Joseph, Amanda, and countless others who have made this community what it is today.

And, thank you to my mum for being a choir parent and for never leaving my side!
