“Working with Claire to re-develop the children’s music program at All Saints Church into a Royal School of Church music Voice for Life format, Claire set high standards and achievable goals. She engages the choristers, keeping their attention by challenging them, rehearsing them in a healthy way, teaching them solid vocal technique, how to observe details, and imparts impeccable musicianship. Rehearsals are demanding, sometimes intense, exceptionally productive, always enjoyable, and singers always leave with a sense of accomplishment. She brings the same qualities to an adult rehearsal, instilling a team spirit, teaching singers how to make intelligent choices, and gets solid, lasting results. You simply cannot be in a Claire Hodge rehearsal or performance without growing and leaving refreshed.” -Tim Smith, Organist and Choir Director , All Saints, WP
