Hello + Welcome

Chase Placid Sebastian Shoemaker (he/him/his): composer, conductor, vocalist, pianist, vocal coach, clinician, and joyful music maker.

As a young gay Catholic with hyperfocus and hyperactivity, music was a means by which Chase expressed himself as a holistic individual. In particular, he was drawn to a choir’s ability to take the beauty of each person’s unique and authentic voice and bring them together in brilliant harmony, or sometimes more miraculously, together in unity. Chase brings this same love of expression to his work as a composer, conductor, vocalist, and educator.

Whether you’re looking for a new piece to program for your ensemble, a vocalist/pianist for your special event, a vocal coach to help you discover your authentic voice, or a clinician to work with your singers or students, Chase has something to offer anyone looking for musical collaboration goodness.
