Welcome


Welcome to Renate's Baton. This blog is mostly for and about my choir, The York Region Community Choir.

But, While I'm holding the baton, I'm in charge. So, if I want to talk about other parts of my life, I will. :)

The choir itself is a community and I'm discovering that we have a lot in common with one another besides our love of music and singing.

When I go off on a tangent, there is always a crowd coming along. Join us!

One In A Million

Hello Everyone,
We were just talking about how the choir is a community, and really more like a big family, at our last performance. We were all proud and happy when Jonathan sailed through his performance of Love Changes Everything and nailed the challenging last notes.
We love our choir and celebrate when one of us does well and mourn together when someone suffers a loss.
I had an email from Elliot, former Tenor and friend of Karen and her dad, Bill. I felt his pride and had to share it here with you. It feels great when one of us does well, even in our extended family.
