“NEO was an amazing space for vocal exploration, both intellectually and experientially. I was amazed at the brilliance of some of the pieces--the ingenuity of ways the voice can be used blew my mind (and I thought I already knew a lot!). In one short week, I found musical friendships that will endure. NEO was the safest and most accepting space for vocal exploration I have experienced in my 30+ professional career.” ~Rachel Velarde, Collegiate and Private Voice Teacher and Vocalist
