"Do more of what makes you happy."
“John Lee Bonner is a genuine joy to collaborate with. Not only is he a phenomenal singer and soloist, he is an avid pursuer of perfection and continually expands the breadth of his musical understanding through listening and score study. His dedication to improving his craft is evident - whether in composing, conducting, or performing, John excels to the highest degree. Additionally, Mr. Bonner possesses one of the most satisfying levels of reliability, consistency, and positivity any colleague or director would dream of regularly working with. Whether I have been collaborating with, performing under, or directing Mr. John Lee Bonner, the experience has always been extremely professional and wildly satisfying.”
