Assistant DIrector Carol Kontir

I have officially been a Sweet Adeline in the Lehigh Valley Chorus for 25 years.  I grew up with Barbershop music in my house.   My father has performed with The Lehigh Valley Harmonizers for over 45 years, and I was attending shows and competitions for as long as I can remember.  I sang in choruses and musical theater throughout high school and college and needed to find a place to continue doing that once I graduated.  I gave Sweet Adelines a try and decided it was just what I was looking for.  I started out singing Lead for the chorus, but for many years now I have been enjoying the fun harmony of singing Baritone.
 
As Assistant Director, I help Marilyn out whenever she needs it.  I will run a rehearsal when she isn’t there and direct a performance if she can’t attend. I also help with choreography to visually enhance our performances.  I feel that movement helps our singing and makes it more entertaining.
 
Being a member of LVC has helped me learn and grow both musically and personally.  The ladies in the chorus are a very special group of women who support each other and share a love of music, performing, and having fun.  Who wouldn’t want to be a part of that?
