Musicians,
UUFH Choir, Janey Hall; Director, Shirley Gruenhut, accompanist
Janey Hall grew up in the church of Christ and it is there where she grew to love singing. after getting a degree in Music Education, Janey taught for almost 30 years in the field of ~ you guessed it ~ music education. Choral music was her specialty & her super-power (one of them) was teaching middle school-aged kids. While she taught, she sang and acted professionally on the side. In 2012, Janey founded and was the Artistic Director for SoCo Women’s Chorus in Austin, Texas. She directed them until she retired in 2020.
She found her haven on the edge of the Blue Ridge Mountains of WNC in the fall of 2023!
