Klara Dannar

It was not an easy step for me to accept a friend's invitation to TWC. "Just check it out... Come to our winter concert." We had just moved in next door to her and I was intrigued by waking up to hear beautiful music coming from her place as she practiced.

During that concert I could see the group was more than women who get together to sing—the energy, sisterly love, the support of each other all came through, woven into the music. Your leadership, tolerance and acceptance of individual skill and comfort also shone through brightly.

I agreed to come—just to check it out—when the spring term started. I am so, so glad I did. It was a personal challenge for me to stick with it. I have never felt comfortable singing with others, even though I feel like music is one of the best healing modalities around (my daughter studied music therapy!).

When we gathered in the circle just before our performance in May, and you suggested dedicating our individual performance to someone, then to just be present and filled with joy, I banished my anxieties/doubts and went into the concert feeling fully present, grateful and peaceful.

That night was magical for me. Thank you for all you do, and the way you do it. I am sure the results we all enjoy come from more time, energy and effort than we could ever know.
