"The power of voices harmonizing into one intense sound fills the room with an energy that is difficult to understand and impossible to explain. They sing as one…and the result is a remarkable display of a cappella four-part harmony."
Karl Turner, Syracuse Newspapers

Kay Crawford, Director

Kay Crawford

Kay Crawford first stepped on the risers in 1985, and became the bass section teacher in 1987. Kay was appointed Assistant Director in August of 2008 and is now the Director of the Spirit of Syracuse. A classically trained pianist, she has helped to develop the strong musical program offered to SOS members, and gets her biggest thrill from teaching the barbershop craft to others.

A driving force and motivator for the chorus, Kay was awarded the 2010 Novice Director Award for Region 16.

"There's nothing like the feeling I get directing this chorus. It's indescribable! I love these women!"
