Today’s episode is a conversation with Dr. Martin Benvenuto, a treble choir specialist, about his journey from singing in choirs in Argentina, to leading some of the most respected treble choirs in the Bay Area. We will also chat about his new choir, 21V, a professional SSAA chorus which is inclusive of voices of all gender identities.
