Elise Greenwood Bahr has been active in the Denver choral music scene since moving to Colorado in
2011. She is thrilled to be singing with the Colorado Bach Ensemble again this season. She also sings
regularly with Saint Martin’s Chamber Choir as well as Saint Andrew’s Episcopal Church Choir. She has
appeared as a soloist with Colorado Bach Ensemble, and with South Suburban Christian Church. Other
choral performances include Anima Chamber Ensemble, Singers Chamber Choir, Vittoria Ensemble, and
other local community and church groups. Before moving to Denver, she appeared in various
productions around the country, including serving as a Principal Singer with the Bach Society of St. Louis,
lead roles with Hartford Opera Theater, and a singer with the Alabama Symphony Chorus in
Birmingham, Alabama. In addition to her choral activities, she is also a fine violinist and has performed
with the Connecticut Valley Chamber Orchestra, the Lone Tree Symphony, and many other church and
community orchestras in three different states. She is also an active private teacher, with a studio of
piano, violin, and vocal students. Elise holds a Master’s of Music in Vocal Performance from The Hartt
School at the University of Hartford, and a Bachelor of Arts in Music from the University of Utah. When
not involved in musical activities, she enjoys running marathons, and spending time with her family in
the beautiful Colorado mountains.
