Vocal music is an especially powerful form of communication that can encourage a better understanding of the struggles and achievements that define people and can develop values that sustain people in life’s experiences. 

It has a unique power to create community.  Throughout its rich cultural history and directly because of its melding of poetry and music, vocal music has had a place in all celebrations of life - to herald new life, mourn the passing of life, mark holidays, and to explore the human condition.

She has toured over 30 cities in the U.S. with her jazz quartet, and her early music group, Galileo's Daughters, has performed throughout the United States and Canada. Past performance highlights include The Messiah in Mumbai, India, and her role as "The Queen" in The Play of Daniel at the Cloisters inNew York City. Sarah’s current performance season includes music of Vivaldi and Tallis with the St. Andrew Chorale; a tour with Galileo’s Daughters in the Midwest; and a special performance at Jefferson’s Monticello, celebrating his vast instrument collection.
