Region 15 Quartet Workshop with LUSTRE was held on June 5 on Zoom. Thank you to everyone who was able to attend! We thank all those who made this day possible: Our Quartet Coordinator, Sharon Vitkovsky, for organizing this wonderful programming; Our Education Coordinator, Jean Schoenlank, for her Zoom hosting duties and all she does for the region; and last, but certainly not least, Kate Morrical Towne (Tenor), Lori Crouter (Lead), Lori Dreyer (Baritone), Jenny Harris (Bass) -- aka the 2018 International Quartet Champions LUSTRE -- for sharing their time, talents, and insights with us.

SEVEN YEARS OF FOOLISHNESS – VIDEO
LUSTRE explores how their favorite ballad, “What Kind of Fool Am I,” grew and changed over the years. From its first Regional contest to their record-setting International semifinal performance, learn how they incorporated feedback from coaches and judges to stuff this song full of craft.
