Purple Door Music

Purple Door Music is owned and operated by Kimberley Denis, from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, who is known for her energy and enthusiasm both on stage and off and is sought after as a soloist, conductor, adjudicator and choir clinician.  Upon completion of both a Bachelor of Commerce and a Bachelor of Music at Mount Allison University in New Brunswick, she returned to Alberta to pursue a double Masters degree in choral conducting and vocal performance at the University of Alberta.  She was awarded the Con Spirito Award from Choir Alberta for her work supporting choral music in Alberta and the Alberta Band Association Award of Distinction for her contributions to supporting music education in the province. She is a singer with Edmonton’s professional choir, Pro Coro Canada and has a flourishing voice studio at her own music school – the Purple Door Music Academy. She is also the voice instructor and choir director at The King’s University in Edmonton, Alberta and presently directs Shumayela (a choir for treble and changing voices for singers between the ages of 11 and 16) with the Korora Choir Association and the River City Chorus (a non-auditioned adult community ensemble).  In addition to her work as a singer, teacher, conductor, and adjudicator, she arranges pieces for choirs.
