Miller used to take vocal lessons and sing as a t4nager, but had stopped for three decades. Now that he's back at it, he said it's been fun revisiting what he enjoyed in his earlier years and working with a talented group to create four-part harmonies. "I always enjoyed choral singing, whether l'm part of it or listening to it; he said, reflecting on his past. "I love to hear a good choir no matter what they're singing and I appreciate hearing ail the parts, top and bottom lines and innervoices. "It's nice to have a group I can participate in and rehearse at a high level," he added. Currently there are six musicians in the group, with room to accommodate up to 12 singers, said Hiltz, noting the group is hosting open rehearsals right now if singers, especially alto and tenors, want to give it a test run. During Christmas, the group performed at an Oakville seniors'residence and it actively par- ticipates in professional development when the opportunity becomes available. Earlier this month, the female singers of Halton Jazz Choir participated in clinics offered by New York Voices at Humber College as part of its Artist in Residence program.
