Christen Herman sings

Alleluia

Christen Herman, mezzo-soprano

What started out as a promising, like-minded musical collaboration became, for each of us, a profound, increasingly and wondrously entwined relationship, as personal involvement, professional experience, and musical adventures accumulated – year upon year – and transformed three separate voices into a perfect triad – eternal sisters, in art and spirit.

Our hearts break at the loss of such a beloved light – as we know the hearts of so many are breaking. We will mourn her loss today and into the days and months ahead – as we know her greater community will also mourn. And we will hold her memory close and fast – ever cherishing our extraordinary friend:

Ever loyal in maintaining her family and friendships

Ever loving in interacting with those in need

Ever generous in sharing her boundless talents

Ever wise in understanding the connections in nature

Ever curious in exploring the planes of existence

Ever fearless in facing her fears

Ever radiant in being Christen
