\"Barbara<\/a><\/p>\n

Second Alto Barbara Miles is a veteran member of the Long Beach Chorale, having sung with the group for fifteen years. She has served twice on the chorale\u2019s Board of Directors and currently holds the position of Chorale Administrator, which involves orchestrating activities in preparation for concerts, maintaining various databases, and anything else that isn\u2019t assigned to someone on the Board!\u00a0 The job also allows her to work from home and keep company with her pair of super-sized German Shepherds, Maxx and Penelope. \u00a0Barbara is a former French horn player and comes from a family of musicians. She sings trios with her sisters whenever they get together (picture them around a cauldron\u2026.).<\/p>\n

\"Not<\/a>

Not actually Barbara and her sisters.<\/p><\/div>\n

In her spare time Barbara can be found tramping around the Sierra Nevada mountains either on skis or with a fly rod, or glamping in Idyllwild with the dogs.<\/p>\n

Barbara feels that the Long Beach Chorale is an incredible jewel in the Long Beach cultural arts scene, and feels very fortunate to be able to share so many amazing performances with her friends.<\/p>\n

Her favorite music includes the symphonic works of Resphigi, Beethoven, and Shostakovich; jazz artists Keith Jarrett, Pat Metheny, and Art Tatum; the Manhattan Transfer; rockers Van Morrison, Bruce Springsteen, Eric Clapton, and Steve Winwood; and bluegrass band Nickel Creek.<\/p>\n
