Our Director

Our music director, Br. Giles (Gene) Hanover FSD, has been a professional voice teacher and instructor for over 30 years.  He has worked with some of the top vocal instructors in the industry and is certified to teach Speech Level Singing Techniques through Singing Success International of Nashville, TN.

While an associate of Brett Manning, vocal coach to the stars, Gene studied with such greats as Seth Riggs and Roland Wyatt — both highly respected voice coaches of well known stars, including Barbara Streisand, Bernadette Peters and the Manhattan Transfer.  Gene’s students have  performed on Broadway in New York, in Chicago, Los Angeles and Toronto, as well as many other theaters and venues throughout the country.

We are very fortunate to have Gene as our music director, and we appreciate all of his hard work, patience and dedication to pushing us to be the very best singers we can be.
