Women of Heartsong is an Austin based non-profit women's choir dedicated to providing uplifting music to those who need the hope, comfort, and infectious joy that music provides. Our core mission is to serve the elderly, ill, confined, and those in our community-at-large by reaching out with regular monthly performances and additional concerts. We are a family of eclectic women who sing from our hearts to lift the hearts of others.

The group was founded in 2007 by Edie Elkjer, a music director for many Austin groups, who was looking for an outlet for the mothers of young children while she was teaching at Heartsong Music. Over the years, the choir has evolved to include women of all ages - mothers, daughters, and grandmothers.

Upon Edie’s retirement from the choir in 2021 after 15 years, the Women of Heartsong choir came under the direction Monica Muscato until 2024 and is now under the leadership of Dianna Jarvis,

The women in the Women of Heartsong choir love to be together and share their hearts in song. The choir sings contemporary folk, gospel, pop, and some classics (in four-part harmony!). The group’s mission is to lift up the hearts of others while blending voices, sharing laughter and enjoying friendships. We perform primarily for the elderly population in local retirement homes and assisted living centers.
