City of Lakes Chorus

 

City of Lakes Chorus , the current Region 6 champions from Minneapolis , Minn. , is proud, excited and pleased as punch to announce our new director, Scott Kvigne!

Scott came to City of Lakes in June as interim director, and it was an instant fit. So, we made it permanent last night, Sept. 28! In the short time we've been together, the chorus has made wonderful strides and turned another corner in our journey to the top.

In addition to his new front-line position with City of Lakes, Scott currently is the associate director/choreographer/visual coach/section leader for the current third place international chorus medalists Great Northern Union Chorus, Hilltop, Minn. He has competed at nine International chorus competitions and has earned three top-five medals. Scott's visual plan for the recent BHS international contest earned GNU a 93.7 percent presentation score, and City of Lakes is ready for some of the same!

Scott has been a member of the Barbershop Harmony Society (BHS) for 22 years, joining at age 18 in 1987. He has been a visual/choreography/performance coach since 1990, was the front-line director of men’s chorus in La Crosse , WI from 1993-1998, and was front-line director of Sweet Adelines chorus in La Crosse , WI from 1996-1998.

In his spare time, he has a day job as senior accountant for a property management company.

Scott is a sought after chorus and quartet coach, and an experienced chorus and quartet singer. His dedication, energy, incredible sense of humor, spirit, and soul are present in everything in which he participates. And although we work very hard in rehearsal, there's always a little time for play.

The City of Lakes family looks forward to a journey of musical and personal growth, risk- taking, love and laughter, and proudly and exuberantly welcomes Scott as its newest member!
