Yay! It's Janeene Williams!

Yay!  Janeene is back!  Janeene Williams has been singing with SACC since 2012 and we are excited to welcome her back for our The Mystery of Christmas concert this weekend on Dec. 16 and 17!  


Janeene Williams has a Bachelor of Music degree in Vocal Pedagogy from The University of Texas at Austin, a Master of Music degree in Vocal Performance from Boston University, and 40 hours toward a Doctor of Musical Arts degree at The University of Texas at Austin. She also completed a two-year acting program at The Acting Studio in New York City. She taught at Angelo State University for three years and now teaches studio voice at St. Stephen’s Episcopal School in Austin, Texas. She also maintains a private voice studio, the Janeene Williams Voice Studio.  Ms. Williams is also an active professional soprano soloist and sings with Conspirare and Ars Longa Ensemble. In 2014 she shared a Grammy award with Conspirare for their recording, “The Sacred Spirit of Russia.”

Janeene was a featured singer on SACC's newest album, Unfrozen: Christmas in the Baltics, which is now available for purchase on iTunes.  It's a beautiful album of Christmas and solstice music from Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia and would make an excellent holiday gift for the classical music lover in your life!  For a limited time, donors who make a generous donation to SACC for $100 or more receive this beautiful CD as a gift!

If you love Janeene and want to support her singing endeavors, please consider donating to the San Antonio Chamber Choir so that we can continue to provide San Antonio and South Texas with performances of the finest choral music featuring Janeene and all our extremely talented singers!  Thank you so much!

Don't forget to come see Janeene and the rest of the San Antonio Chamber Choir this weekend for our The Mystery of Christmas Concert on Dec. 16 and 17!  This event celebrates 100 years of recorded jazz and 1,000 years of choral music in a combined concert with special guests, the Jazz Protagonists.  Also featured will be the North East School of the Arts Dancers and the Clark High School Choir.
