Our Story
Arizona Girlchoir has offered performance-based choral education to hundreds of girls and young women since 2011. Arizona Girlchoir was founded by Sue Kenly Marshall and a group of interested parents who wanted quality choral and music education for their daughters.
Over the years, the choir has grown to include student ensembles, a women’s choir, and an early-childhood music class. Our singers participate in formal concerts, community performances, and annual summer camps and tour.
