Michelle Boudreau:
|
Upon taking up the piano at 5 years old,
music has been an integral part of Michelle's life.
In addition to singing with various choirs throughout her school-aged years,
she had the opportunity to perform with the women's choir while attending University of
Northern Colorado as a vocal performance major. She has since continued her musical career, singing
with everything from a national country performer to 5 years with a Celtic rock band and impressing
crowds with her renditions of Janis Joplin.
Between her piano playing and dulcet low notes,
she was a treasured prize. CoRF 2008 |

Leah Stein:
|
Leah's musical
education started with folk songs on road trips with her family.
The humble begining was the right spark to inflame the love that
would become her life's passion. Starting with "The Sunshine
Kids" in kindergarten and continuing with various other choirs
all through Elementary and Middle school she began a journey that
she continued with MMM.
In High school she spent two years in private voice
lessons and then began performing with the Metropolitan State College
of Denver's Women's Choir. She was recently a Major in Music
with an emphasis in Vocal Performance through MSCD and used each grain of musical knowledge
gained there to better her sound with the MMM.
To Leah, life's every hour
is a potential real-life musical and day by day she works hard
to make them that way! CoRF 2006-2008 |

Emily is a recent graduate from the Colorado State University in
Fort Collins with an Anthropology Major and a French minor.
In addition to her intellectual pursuits, she has
been singing since before she can remember. Accomplished in her
youth as a member of the Colorado Springs Children's Chorale,
Colorado All State Choir, and the National Youth Chorus, her most
recent vocal achievements include singing for the 2005 International
Sacred Music Festival in South Korea with the Colrado State University
Chamber Singers, and of course, her membership in the Merrye Madrygal
Mavyns of the Colorado Renaissance Festivale, the fynest group
of ladies she has ever had the honor with which to sing.
Don't let her size fool you, she made the biggest
sound and most technically sound of the group! CoRF 2006-2008 |

Monika Graf:
|
The first show Monika performed in was in her
living room. It was somewhere between a pretend Starsearch audition
and a child's Ballet class. She was six years old and determined
to become the first singing ballerina. Of course, at the time
she was quite tone deaf, but the dream was already there...
After fifteen years of various vocal and theatrical
performance, she has performed in Greeley, Denver, Colorado Springs,
Boulder, Larkspur and other various venus around Colorado. She
currently resides in Boulder, Colorado and has finished her Bachelors
Degree of Music and Theater at Metro State College of Denver.
Friendly, easy to work with, and talented, Monika
Graf is a performer who, using both classical and musical theater
backgrounds, works hard to sing and perform on a professional
level. She was also our fearless leader in 2008 and was both webmaster and
the unofficial voice coach of the group. CoRF 2006-2008

Anikka Weinfeld:
|
Anikka has adored madrigals since she made her
high school madrigal choir as a sophomore. When she was little
she invented the game "Let's harmonize to everything!"
and challenged herself to never sing melody along with the radio.
This natural ear supported her onstage in musical theatre, and
carried her through music theory and numerous choirs across the
country and overseas.
Directing the madrigals at the Colorado Renaissance
Festival during the 2006 and 2007 seasons was the perfect way
for Anikka to fuel her desire for musical artistry.
Thanks Anikka for making this dream possible!
