About

Gretchen Harbourt (Elegant Voice by Gretchen) is a classically trained soprano who received the degree of B.A. in Music at Keene State College. Gretchen has twenty years of choral experience and twenty-three years of solo experience. In recent years Gretchen has been the soprano section leader and soloist with the St. Cecilia Choir at Our Lady of Czestochowa in Turners Falls, Massachusetts. Gretchen sings in a number of styles such as Gregorian Chant, Classical (religious, art song, opera), vintage/historical, patriotic songs, Broadway, and popular. In addition to styles Gretchen can sing in several different languages as well such as English, Latin, Italian, German, French, Polish, and more. Gretchen has sang at weddings, funerals, graduation ceremonies, has done recitals, musicals/operettas, led sing-a-longs, sang the National Anthem and other patriotic songs, and has done several historical song sets including jazz and 18th century music to name a few. Although Gretchen has completed and reached many accomplishments she strives to always learn more and grow as a musician.

My craft as a business is for non-religious wedding ceremony music, Christian, Catholic, Jewish, and Gay or Lesbian weddings. I work with local pianists and organists for accompianists as well as having contacts with string, brass, and woodwind players. In addition to providing ceremony music I also can provide the service of creating and printing of ceremony programs.

I must emphasize I am not like my competitors. My mission is to provide the music that expresses your love and relationship with the best quality. I strive to make my performance perfect to make your day as memoriable as possible. I believe my prices are fair because it is about the music and your special day more than anything else.

Gretchen was very professional when I asked her to perform at my mother's funeral. After contacting her she immediately contacted the parish and the organist in order to get the musical program going ahead of time because funerals are usually rushed right after the death date. After going through the music choices with Gretchen she was able to meet with the organist right away to work on repertoire. Gretchen paid for the music, created a program, and practiced the music for five days diligently. The music was so beautiful that some of the relatives cried. My mother would be proud to have had such a beautiful singer for her service.

Gretchen is a very hard working, diligent worker, who puts professionalism at the utmost of her priorities. As a choir member and/or solo singer she is well versed in pieces from various periods and is capable of learning new pieces in a relatively short period of time. She has a full, mature sound with excellent diction. She is well versed in singing Italian, Latin, German, and English. I would highly recommend her for Weddings, Funerals, or any other singing events that one might need. Gretchen was not a client for a wedding or a funeral but she was one I have worked with doing duets, has soloed with, and I have been in several choirs with her.
