Anne Kilstofte – Biographical Sketch
Architectural drawings and watercolor tubes surrounded Arizona native Anne Kilstofte from an early age. Her mother is an award-winning visual artist of lush Southwest landscapes and her father received his degree from the University of Arizona and went on to design structures throughout the southwest.
Anne’s musical skills became evident when she began playing the piano to classical recordings as a youngster. She began studying piano at four, and sang in select choirs and madrigal groups for dignitaries, including the President of the United States, toured Europe in concert and the World’s Fair. She became a professional musician at the age of twelve. Dr. Kilstofte received a bachelor’s and master’s degree in music from the University of Colorado and a Ph.D. in Music Theory and Composition from the University of Minnesota.
As an educator for over thirty years, she has taught at the Estonian Academy of Music as a Fulbright Senior Scholar, the University of Minnesota, Hamline University, Gustavus Adolphus College, and currently teaches at Glendale Community College in Glendale, Arizona.
Come and hear "TIL MIN MOR" by Composer, Dr Anne Kilstofte on May 11. GREAT new choral work for mixed chorus and boomwhackers!

...Carolyn Eynon Singers ~ a Scottsdale, AZ choir
A musical Salute
An octet from CES was on Sonoran Living Channel ABC15 on May 4th. We were promoting our Armed Forces Day concerts, honoring all our veterans. "A Musical Salute" is filled with patriotic music, a Civil Air Patrol Honor Guard, and a highly decorated retired Naval Pilot who flew in Vietnam. Veterans are invited to join us at no cost!
Choral music in Scottsdale
Choral music is my passion for the art creates community. We all need music in our lives and singing together connects people. In my lifetime, this is the most vulnerable, emotional time in our country since my memory of post Viet Nam War. Music soothes, heals, and crosses borders. Come enjoy our Scottsdale choir soon!

Creating a Lifelong Singer
When Susan McMane was in high school, she probably spent about as much time chanting “two, four, six, eight” as she did singing “do, re, mi.”
“I was a cheerleader, and it was probably the worst thing I could have done for my voice,” she says. “The way we use our voice for talking and other activities can hurt it as much as singing if we’re using it incorrectly. I would have liked for someone to have told me that.”
The Benefits of Music Education
By Laura Lewis Brown
Whether your child is the next Beyonce or more likely to sing her solos in the shower, she is bound to benefit from some form of music education. Research shows that learning the do-re-mis can help children excel in ways beyond the basic ABCs.
Practice time!
