Music on-line - Sally DeFord

We are always open to inviting new voices and talent to share the joy of music with us. Please send us an email if you or your group wish to take part in a spiritual musical event or church service with us. (burgartstudios@gmail.com)


"No Greater Love" is one piece that our church choir enjoyed performing for Christmas. It was was quick to learn and left all present with a warm, tingly feeling. Below are two very different, and very lovely, YouTube versions of this beautiful Sally DeFord song.

Defordmusic.com is a website that we are regularly visiting! We always will find beautiful arrangements of spiritual music for solo, duet and choir performances at defordmusic.com. Perhaps you have heard some of these pieces being performed or performed a few yourselves!


If you would like to use them for your choir or special event, Sally DeFord has written beautiful obbligatos for flute or violin for many of the pieces so be sure to search for them as well.


You can instantly view the full music score, download and print it and hear the music played for the songs you are interested in straight from this site. The music is free and of good quality. You can also find other good links and YouTube clips on this website. Enjoy!

Spring is Just Around the Corner - Group Session Announcement

We have been considering dates for our Group Music Session which will be during Spring Break. Each of you has been eagerly preparing music to share with one another. The date which works best for the majority of us is Saturday, March 17 from 10:30 until 11:45 a.m. Invitations for this fun event which you can give out to prospective students are available from your teacher.  Please email us for an invitation if you are not a current student: burgartstudios@gmail.com.

Our theme will be Springtime. Snacks will be shared as well as positive comments and games. 

The purpose is for students to get to know one another, feel comfortable working together, and learn more about the joy of music. 


This event is a predecessor to the Year-End Recital, which parents will be invited to. Please note that because this session is considered a tool for learning it is for students only, although, some prospective students may be asked to bring a parent for observation.
