Morningsong Singing Leader - Jane Becktel

Jane has a degree in music from the Elder Conservatorium
(University of Adelaide). She has been involved in teaching
music for many years. In 2007/2008 she worked for
The Song Room, a philanthropic organisation dedicated
to bringing music to less advantaged children and
communities.

Jane recently resumed working with the Song Room. Her
focus at the moment is working with the Mater Children's
Hospital Special School - singing with children who range in
age from 4 to Year 12. Jane considers it the most challenging
job she has had but finds it tremendously rewarding hearing
very ill children sing in beautiful harmony.

In her early work Jane worked as a music teacher in
Adelaide for 4 years before moving to California with her
American husband. They had two children whom they
homeschooled. The family choir Jane facilitated in California
was a volunteer job for all homeschooling families and it was
both a music and social event every week for over a decade.

This blog records Jane's communications with Morningsong
community choir members.
