Section Leaders
Each section of the choir is lead by an experienced section leader who acts as a vocal leader, as a teacher in sectionals, and as a role model and support to our singers.
Soprano – Mandy Viles
Alto – Marianna Constable
Tenor – Jordan Orr
Bass – Elijah Tiemens
The GCC directors have a commitment to and love for Jesus Christ, and desire to express that in the context of music. We dedicate our efforts to God by incorporating prayer into the beginning of each semester and performance.
You don’t have to be a Christian to participate, just open to allowing faith into the musical process. We warmly welcome singers from all faiths, backgrounds, and traditions into the choir.
