ABOUT THE ARTISTS
The Grimm Family Choir is composed of seven of the sixteen children of Mr. and Mrs. William C. Grimm of Pasadena, California. Although they have never had other director than Marya, the oldest member of the group, the children´s love of singing and early music has been fostered both by a music loving household and by their association with Mr. Primo L. Puccinelli, the choirmaster at St. Philip the Apostle Church, Pasadena. Marya, Paula, Stephen and Daniel are students at Thomas Aquinas College, Calabasas, California; the three younger members of the choir, Patricia, Anita, and Michele, are still in high school. (1972)
