From a very young age, Mr. Lee’s passion was solely connected to music-making. With the hope to connect hearts, bridge divides and inspire young choristers to open the horizons of their minds, he spent the first seventeen years of his career as the choral and instrumental director at Seycove Secondary School in North Vancouver. It is here, that he established his first vocal jazz ensemble, that were featured in various festivals throughout Western Canada and Washington State. Additionally, his chamber choir was honoured with the distinction of Youth Choir of the World at the International Choral Festival, Kathaumixw. Mr. Lee was also a member of the Faculty at Douglas College, directing the chorus, which was named the top choir at the Canadian National Choral Festival and had their solo debut concert in 2011 at the prestigious Carnegie Hall. In 2014, Mr. Lee became the Choral Director at Carson Graham Secondary School, where his approach has materialized many additional musical opportunities for students, including performing at the TD International Jazz Festival. He was invited to direct the Saskatchewan Provincial Honour Choir and is the newly appointed Artistic Director of The Amabilis Singers in Greater Vancouver.
