9:39Now PlayingThe Colorado Children's Chorale organization partnered with Maria Ellis, one of only a few Black women who are conductors in the country, to surprise schools across the Denver Metro Area.
Ellis is recognized as a choral conductor, music educator, and founder of Girl Conductor. The Colorado Children's Choral organization received financial support from The Eulipions Fund, to bring Ellis in for a week-long Conductor-in Residence program and work one-on-one with 13 choirs at seven schools.
Ellis traveled from St. Louis to Colorado between Feb. 28 and March 3, to amplify and show the importance of representation in the choral world, which typically is a male dominated industry.
