An important update from our Board President, C Scott Zimmerman:
As you are no doubt aware, the COVID-19 coronavirus is causing major disruptions to daily life across the country, with large gatherings being canceled or postponed in an effort to slow the spread of this new disease. Our artistic director and board of directors have decided to reschedule our upcoming Light & Love concert, effectively cancelling our performances on March 29th & 29th.
While we don't want to contribute to the panic and anxiety around this situation, we feel that our responsibility to our singers, our audiences, and the community leaves us no choice but to postpone our spring show. We are re-scheduling our Light & Love concert to June 13 & 14 at ATC (The Temple Of Music And Art). We will gladly exchange or refund tickets already purchased for the concerts.
This situation is in flux, and we appreciate your patience and cooperation as we navigate these choppy waters. Rest assured that we are closely monitoring developments and will take whatever measures are necessary for the good of the chorus and our community at large.
I'm beyond grateful to sing and serve with these incredibly dedicated and talented people. We'll keep you informed as things progress, so keep an eye out for updates. Take good care of yourselves, and we hope to see you all in June!

We are pleased to announce that Kim Waigwa will be our Interim Artistic Director heading into the new year. Kim's passion for and dedication to Desert Voices' vision, her musicianship, proficiency in teaching, and her established relationship with the chorus made her the best person we could possibly ask for to lead Desert Voices. We wish Brayton Bollenbacher all the best in his new role as the Artistic Director of the Columbus Gay Men’s Chorus—a magnificent opportunity at which we know he will excel. Congratulations to Kim on her new adventure with us, and to Brayton on his in Columbus; we are excited for what the future holds!

Desert Voices is Tucson's premier gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and ally chorus. We are a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing Arizona beautiful music and to forging a positive and resolute LGBTQA presence in the community. Our unique chorus welcomes all voices to attend our rehearsals and come to our performances, regardless of age, gender, race, creed, or sexuality.
