About
We currently sing under the direction of Cary Burns.
Previously, under the leadership of our Co-Directors, Dave Moses and Bill Shaw, the Chorus achieved new heights in performance levels, the Chorus Won Plateau A at the Far Western District Division 5 competition in 2009 and again in 2012, 2013, and 2014. Bill & Dave in their first year as Co-Directors bring years of experience to bring the Desert Aires to new heights of performing excelence. If you're looking for a unique musical experience to liven up your event, please check out our Hire Us section. In addition to sharing our music with others, another great passion of ours is learning more about the art of acapella singing. Vocal instruction is a regular part of chorus rehearsals, and a very important component of the chorus experience. A couple of times a year, we will get coaching from a visiting master in the art of barbershop, where we learn many fabulous tricks of the trade.
Quartets Most choruses have a number of members who form their own vocal quartets in addition to singing with the chorus.
