Following a recent audition, Maren Corkery has won a Dox Apprentice Scholarship with the Catskill Choral Society based in Oneonta, N.Y.
Sixteen-year-old Maren will sing first alto in the fifty-member choir under the direction of Prof. R. Colin Armstrong. Accompanied by an orchestral ensemble, the group plans a major presentation called "Carols and Lullabies: Christmas in the Southwest" on December 5 and 6.
The society's focus has been on choral music of all periods since its founding in 1970.
Maren is the eldest daughter of Kevin and Sarah Corkery of Oneonta and granddaughter of FFN editor Greg Fieg. Kevin is a semi-professional percussionist who plays regularly throughout the area and the Fieg family is notoriously musical, so Maren appears to have been cut from the same cloth.
Congratulations, Maren!
