WOMAN OF NOTE 2019 - Jackie Compton
Toast of Champaign has chosen our director, Jackie Compton, as this year’s Woman of Note. An accolade long overdue, she has directed our chorus for nearly 40 years, and still brings to us unending enthusiasm and a wonderful sense of humor as she elevates us to a level she knows we are capable of. A former music educator herself, she continues to grow and learn each year through her attendance at music schools and active participation on the Regional Management Team. She knows how to impart that knowledge in a way every chorus member can not only understand but also embrace along with her. Her contributions to our chorus go far beyond being our director; she is our friend.
