Enchanted Mesa Show Chorus Quartets

Their name truly captures the essence of this quartet. Singing lead is Donna Berardinelli, who was initiated into barbershop harmony before she was born. She has her master’s degree at UNM and currently follows her passion to help students learn and succeed in her first grade classroom. Her mom, Bev Berardinelli, is our baritone and has always sung in choirs since high school. She likes to cook in a crockpot, go for walks, and play Uno with her family. Heather Hall, our bass, has been singing her whole life. When she isn’t singing, she’s an avid birder and loves spending time with her hubby, Ken, their two kitties and one doggy. Our tenor, Valerie Stefani, has been singing as long as she can remember. She gets excited about finding ways to engage with and extend young children’s curiosity and working on complex jigsaw puzzles with her love, Evan. Sweet Insanity is delighted to sing for you today!

Better Than Therapy got its beginnings a year into COVID, with their first practices in singers’ masks. Laura Draelos and Anita LeCour, formerly in Sweet and recently retired, recruited Patty Brewer as tenor and Michelle Bunzel, who converted from bass to lead. Patty, tenor, sang for years with Sunny Disposition, has been actively involved with EMSC in many capacities, and enjoys playing tennis. Michelle currently sings in two choruses: EMSC and Rio A Cappella, works full-time and has also appeared in several theater productions in town. Anita , baritone, previously sang in Sunny Disposition, Winsome and Sweet, and plays piano for her church choir. Laura, bass, previously sang with Sweet, and is a champion racewalker.They share their love of barbershop singing and their desire to ‘spread the love’ as they share their music.
