"Not only did the [Northwestern] Choir succeed in giving great performances of their repertoire,
but the choir also was a good representative of American choral sound culture with clearly unique touches
from their splendid leader, Professor Timothy Sawyer, a well-known conductor and much-admired teacher."
Markus Yli-Jokipii, conductor • Turku (Finland) Conservatory Chamber Choir
TIMOTHY SAWYER
conductor • educator • tenor • clinician
"...what a fantastic job you and the [Northwestern] Choir did with my piece...the technical execution was exquisite, and the expressiveness was very moving. You and the choir brought so much to the piece and brought out parts of the music that I had not heard or considered before – you truly made it your piece, and that is simply amazing...I was truly blown away." Dr. David De Lyser, D.A., composer • University of Portland
"...Professor Timothy Sawyer, himself a singer,
led the vocally excellent chorus with extraordinarily
sensitive musicality. His beat is solid as a rock,
transforming their sound."
