FAVA has meant the world to our family. Dianne Harmel’s excellent training prepared our son for concerts, song-leading, theatre (leading parts), and now a major in music in a conservatory. My husband and I also enjoyed singing in the adult choirs. Thank you, Dianne, Debbie, and the board!

My daughter had such a positive experience and learned much from Mrs. Harmel!
Lynne G. San Dimas, CA
I love FAVA! Mrs. Harmel cultivates a fun, laid-back atmosphere. She chooses a variety of choral arrangements (classical, Disney, folk, foreign language) that rely on every singer, as she strives to challenge us and share her love of music.”
