Rebecca Richards, Master Director, has been a member of Sweet Adelines International since 1991, but says she really started at the age of four, singing baritone to all of her mother’s quartet songs. From singing in the church choir as a child to singing with numerous choirs in school as a teenager to harmonizing at home with her kids as an adult, being a part of a vocal music ensemble has always been an integral part of her life. Rebecca has performed with several award-winning quartets and has been the proud director of High Country Chorus since 2014. When she’s not singing, she’s keeping up with her three very busy sons and all her dogs.
 

 

Lindsey Pfannenstiel, Assistant Director, began her barbershop journey at a young age in Hutchinson, Kansas. Her private voice teacher (a tenor in the local Sweet Adelines chorus) encouraged her to join a Young Women in Harmony chorus called, “Harmony Bound”. After the first rehearsal, Lindsay was hooked! After graduating from the University of Kansas, Lindsay moved to Denver with the goal of finding a barbershop chorus. Fortunately, she found High Country right down the street! Since joining in 2012, Lindsay has served as Assistant Director, Music Team Manager, Baritone Section Leader, and sings tenor in her current quartet, Pinky Swear.
