Choir

The Voices of             Flower Mound

The Voices of Flower Mound

Established in 2006, the Voices of Flower Mound has grown into a large-scale mixed chorus of more than 65 accomplished singers. Founders Ron and Janis Miller - still active participants and board members - launched the group in collaboration with original music director Mary McGuyer. Ten years later, upon her retirement, the Millers discovered Dr. Arturo Ortega. Building on the strengths that were already in place at the time, Dr. Ortega has taken the choir to another level. As a result, the choir has developed a loyal, growing following and a stellar reputation in the region.

 

Recent concerts demonstrate the choir's diverse programming, all of which were praised as audience pleasers:

​

  • Serious Music Mashup - A seamless blending of selections from the classical, musical theatre, and indie pop genres 

  • Diamonds and Desperadoes - A program highlighting classic hits of the country/western and bluegrass genres

  • Unforgettable - A presentation of jazz standards from the American Songbook

  • Old Time Religion - A celebration of Gospel favorites and American hymns 

 

Collaborations, Relationships, and Community Favorites

The Voices of Flower Mound maintains an active presence throughout the Flower Mound area with performances at local functions such as the town's annual Memorial Day and Veterans Day celebrations. The choir also joins with the Lamb of God Lutheran Church for its annual Memorial Day Service.

 

Independence Day and Christmas are celebrated with enormously popular concerts with the Trietsch Memorial United Methodist Church Chancel Choir and the Flower Mound Symphony Orchestra. Both concerts are family favorites throughout the community.

​

The Voices of Flower Mound also takes pride in its frequent collaborations with artists of international renown. The most recent concerts have featured baritone Malcolm Payne, Jr.; singer, multi-instrumentalist, & virtuoso fiddler Stephanie Raby; Lamb of God Lutheran Church Music Director & Organist Stephanie Poyner; and select & former members of the University of North Texas One O'Clock Lab Band.

Additionally, the choir has performed in Portugal & Spain, as well as Hungary, Austria, and the Czech Republic.
