My name is Corinne but I am known as the Infamous Ms.C when I am feeling full of electricity and ready to put on a show. I should probably explain to you what I mean by that…I am a vocalist for a progressive metal band called In Virtue and for a European Fusion Folk group called The Mor Rigan's Wake. I find that life to me is making music, learning about other cultures and religion and traveling to new places.

My name is Corinne but I am known as the Infamous Ms.C when I am feeling full of electricity and ready to put on a show. I should probably explain to you what I mean by that…I am a vocalist for a progressive metal band called In Virtue and for a European Fusion Folk group called The Mor Rigan's Wake. I find that life to me is making music, learning about other cultures and religion and traveling to new places.
I have lived in California all my life except for one wonderful year I spend living in England when I was getting my masters in music. I am hoping to move back there either this year or the next as England's seems to be where my heart lies. I also love to travel and have been to Mexico, Canada, Germany, Ireland, Scotland, France, The Netherlands, Austria, Italy, Wales, Belgium and Switzerland however I have only traveled to Nevada and Hawaii in the USA ;).
I am hoping to visit Finland next. I have fallen in love with the Finnish language-the folk songs are so beautiful and the language is ideal for singing. I also hope to make it out to Japan some day.
Hmmmm lets see what else…..
Heritage: I am a mix of nationalities namely Mexican, Native American, Spanish, French, English, Russian, Polish, Irish and German so essentially-that makes me American.
Schooling: I received a BA in Music from Sonoma State University (USA) in 2000 and graduated magna cum laude and I have a Masters in Music Performance from Kingston University (UK) and graduated in 2003 with commendation. My initial plan was to teach music performance at a University however with the American economy being what it is I have worked as an internationall accounts liaison for a manufacturingg company for the last five years and perform on the side-go figure!
Music: Voice is my main instrument (styles: folk, jazz, opera, rock, musical theater) but I can also play mountain dulcimer, slentem and bonang, guitar, trumpet, Irish whistle and some piano.
Religion: My Mother is Catholic and my father is Jewish however I consider myself an Eclectic Pagan. I am an ordained minister and this year I am working on establishing The Ministry of the Crossroads-an all faiths ministry. I find religion fascinating and love learning about how other people practice their faith.
Anything else…. I love to paint and draw, sew, craft scrapbook, wood burn ect. I am really into dogs, wolves and rodents and have an uncanny ability to calm these creatures (my friends call me The Rodent Queen because of this odd ability). The only thing I think I can cook really well is beef stew,chili, beer bread and roast turkey. I have too many hobbies to list …I am an only child (explains a lot doesn't it)…..I love office supplies... and…and..OK, enough said.
I guess none of you need to meet me since that was about it ;)
