Two of my students' choir members joined this event, "A Japanese celebration". We had a couple of practice and I sent them out to a joint rehearsal. The NAV Chorus, which I've been giving a voice training, offered me kindly to invite my singing students into their group. Thank you, NAV! My students had a good time and they definitely enjoyed!
