Alyssa K. Breece, Executive Director
Alyssa Breece brings more than 18 years of senior leadership experience in administration, operations, and project management to the Chorale. With a background in market research, Alyssa is uniquely qualified to use her community relations skills, strategic planning and research expertise to navigate the seas of fiscal management and development, while supporting our organization’s vision to provide opportunities for personal and collective growth, and for exploring our shared humanity in partnership with our community.

Alyssa proudly sings with the Chorale in the core ensemble as well as with the treble ensemble, Woven Voices, led by the Chorale's Artistic Advisor and Collaborative Pianist, Barb Brooks.

​As the mom of a middle and high schooler, she is always on the go. When not enjoying the arts, you may find her binging true crime podcasts, gardening, traveling, reading, puzzling or chasing her two dachshunds, Moose & Ollie. For the fellow nerds in the know, Ollie's full name is Oliphaunt, named after Tolkien's war elephants in Lord of the Rings.

Jenny Kisner, Operations Director
Jenny's passion for singing and involvement with choral communities blossomed in early elementary school and has continued to grow ever since. Jenny credits some of her fondest memories to her time with Angelica Cantanti Youth Choirs, Iowa State Cantamus Women's Choir, and the VocalEssence Chorus. After receiving a Bachelor of Architecture from Iowa State University, Jenny worked for many years in residential design before pivoting to management in non-profit animal welfare work. Her combined employment and musical experiences culminated in her joining the Chorale as Operations Director in July 2023.  In her free time you will find Jenny snuggling her dogs, drinking coffee, doing a crossword, planning her next travel adventure, and of course singing along to the radio.​
