Claire Colman, Board Member Claire Coleman joined Sonoma Bach in 2023, starting with the Bach Choir and then Circa 1600 in 2024 after searching for a place to sing that combined musical excellence with a welcoming community.

Claire has sung throughout her life, participating in various choirs, including the Oberlin Collegium Musicum, Chanticleer LAB Choir, and the Worcester College Chapel Choir, as well as at the Konzervatorium Jána Levoslava Bellu in Slovakia. Outside of singing, she enjoys local government and hiking in Sonoma County's beautiful parks with her husband, while working as the Budget/Financial Services Manager for the City of El Cerrito; she holds a BA from Oberlin College and an MPA from the University of Southern California.
