New Hampshire Gay Men’s Chorus Present’s “Putting It All Together”
Our talented Artistic Director, Luc Andre Roberge, has endured with NHGMC nearly a quarter century — almost as long as NHGMC itself!
Luc started out as a bass singer in the Chorus from 1988 to 2000. Later in 2000, he was appointed Chorus Director, succeeding Rodney Mansfield.
Luc’s passion for singing and music was inspired by his parents, the late Jeanne and Tony Roberge. Luc performed his first singing solo at his First Holy Communion. As a child, he played the organ and clarinet and sang with his family’s church choir. He played in his junior high school band and was chosen as his high school’s Drum Major.
Luc studied advanced music theory, conducting, and voice at the University of New Hampshire. He also completed the Choral Concepts and Conducting program under Donald Neuen, Professor of Conducting at UCLA. Luc is a member of the American Choral Directors Association. Luc also has a business career in district merchandising for CVS/Pharmacy. He earned a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from New Hampshire College. Luc lives in Manchester with his husband and chorus member, Rickey Shepard. Luc and Rickey met in 2001 and married in 2013.
