SOPHIE MAZZEO
Class of 2025
I have grown up with Cantabile as a constant backdrop to my life since I joined in kindergarten. I still remember sitting on the ground in prep 1 doing Halloween-themed rhythm exercises with my sister. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to sing with world-class musicians and advance my musical knowledge and skills with such a wonderful community. I loved learning the repertoire and understanding the context of our music. Cantabile has also given me the chance to participate in its leadership program, which has led me to better connect with the choral community as a whole and the music we learn. I truly love all the amazing people I’ve met through Cantabile, whom I would never have gotten a chance to speak to otherwise. I’ve seen the Cantabile community change so much over time but it still retains its warmth and friendliness to all who join. Seeing the way music is valued and taught here has persuaded me to continue my musical journey.
