OUR DIRECTOR
Stacy Schumacher has been involved in Sweet Adelines literally since birth, attending rehearsals of the JaCoMo (later to become Twin Heritage) chorus with her mother, grandmother and aunt. She became an official member of Sweet Adelines at age 11 when she joined the Blue Valley chorus, which her grandmother was directing at the time. By the time she joined the Kansas City Chorus at age 14, she had not only been singing in a Sweet Adelines chorus for 3 years, but also been on a chorus board and chaired a committee. While obtaining her degree in Music Education at Northwest Missouri State, she developed an interest and talent for choreographing show choirs. She has enjoyed using that skill to help create and teach choreography for the Kansas City chorus. Although she began as a chorus lead, she soon moved to baritone and found her niche (both in the chorus and several quartets). However, from 2005-2008 she sang tenor in Region 7’s quartet champions, PRIMO! Most recently, she has gone back to her roots and is currently singing lead in the quartet Legacy! Stacy is now a music teacher. She has taught both elementary and high school. Currently, she is teaching kindergarten through 4th grade in the Fort Osage school district, and she is delighted to have the opportunity to share her musical and teaching gifts with the Kansas City Chorus. |
