  • Her presence stirs the hearts of the entire assembly

    As a cantor in our parish, her presence stirs the hearts of all. Maria has the unique gift of capturing the prayers and emotions of an entire audience--be they joy, sadness or grief; and, with the voice of an angel, delivering them to the "ear of God"!

    ...as an artist and professional she constantly seeks perfection from herself

    ...as a teacher she shares her passion for music and gently coaxes other's potential.

    — Andy D.

  • Sounds like an angel, warm and uplifting.

    Friends and family told me they cried during your Ave Maria.  St. Mark is so lucky to have you as their cantor and our family greatly appreciates that you were part of Marion's celebration of life. 

    Thank you for everything,

    — Marie A.

  • What a beautiful voice

    I attended a memorial mass at St Mark’s Church where you sang- beautifully. I enjoyed your singing SO much!! I was very moved by your interpretation of the music. What a beautiful voice you have! I come from a family of professional musicians so I am not easily impressed. Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift.
