Meet our New Music Teacher, Ms. Barba
Please join me in welcoming Ms. Barba to Lovejoy Elementary! She is excited about helping students develop a lifelong passion for music. Ms. Barba grew up in Guadalajara, Jalisco (Mexico) and lived in the Texas Rio Grande Valley for 11 years before coming to the DFW area. Ms. Barba earned a Bachelor of Music in Music Education (vocal/choral) at The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV). Ms. Barba’s musical experiences include: being a section leader in her university’s choir and performing throughout the state of Texas; performing major works with the Valley Symphony Orchestra and Chorale; and starring in several university opera productions including Bizet’s Carmen and Verdi’s La Traviata. Ms. Barba’s leadership and teaching experiences include serving as vocal coach and music director of a university musical theater production as part of her undergraduate creative works project with the Engaged Scholarship. In addition, Ms. Barba completed her clinical teaching with the choir and elementary music programs at J. Economedes High School and A. Ramirez Elementary in Edinburg, TX. After university, Ms. Barba worked as a pre-school music teacher at Preston Park Montessori Academy in Plano, TX. Outside of her academic performances, Ms. Barba performs in a non-profit vocal ensemble called Dolce Armonia.
