Dr. Vicki Burrichter's artistic mission is to produce work that is deeply meaningful, profoundly beautiful, emotionally thrilling and which inspires audiences to see the world as a place of possibility, hope and connection - a world where real change is possible, and where the beauty and glory of great music can inspire and heal. She is known in the community and to colleagues as someone who has the vision and skills to execute large and successful projects, whether purely artistic, or multimedia charity events. She is known to her ensemble members and students as a technically excellent, passionate and compassionate leader and conductor. And her voice and performance students regard her as a teacher of the highest integrity, knowledge, compassion and humor - someone who inspires them to bring forth their deepest emotions and most distinctive performances.
