They are excited to announce that they are taking NEW voice students of all levels, ages, styles, and genres on a SLIDING scale. Email them at helenacolindres@gmail.com or DM them on instagram if you are interested!
Helena is a fat short Brown person with black hair to their waist and are wearing a white traditional dress from their homelands with rainbow colored embroidery of different flowers and fauna of Guxgatan while the orchestra is in black clothing of different styles. Helena is on stage in front of the choir while the orchestra is in the pit in front of the vocalists. They are singing in a church with silver organ pipes behind the performers and wreaths underneath them. In between the organ is a stained glass window with a white jesus and a white dove. In the bottom of the frame are the backs of some of the audience members heads.
Suhsul padiux for watching and listening. I am not in support of cults in any way, I am just singing this music to pay bills and I liked the communist messaging behind the text.
