The Louisville Chapter of the National Pastoral Musicians (NPM) had a truly memorable and successful event with our Michael Kemp Choral Booster Shot on September 27, 2017. Success is defined as well attended, and from the number of grateful and supportive comments received. We had over 238 singers attend from 24 different parishes across the Archdiocese of Louisville, with more positive comments than I would have dreamed possible. Mr Kemp delicately pointed out that choirs are made up largely of aging voices, then gave us all pointers on how to improve our sound. Plus – he is just delightful and so entertaining! The time flew by, and the recordings of our songs that night are truly beautiful. Additionally, he is flexible – working with us on songs we requested for our next event, our St Cecilia Sing, helping us build upon this success and keep the momentum going for our chapter. He is a gifted conductor and musician, a true gem – with a caring heart. I highly recommend an event like this for your chapter.
