VIRGINIA EKROTH – School Outreach
Ginger received a Bachelor of Music degree from San Francisco State University and a Master of Music in Choral Conducting from Sacramento State University. She studied classical guitar at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. She taught middle school and high school choral music and guitar classes in the Sacramento region for 26 years, beginning at Cordova High School in the early 1990’s. She directed the Folsom High School Chamber Singers, Concert Choir and Guitar Ensemble, and two choirs at Sutter Middle School for 20 years, until her retirement in June of 2019. She became an SGS member a number of years ago, when past resident Daniel Roest began bringing guest artists to her guitar class as part of the Sac Guitar Society’s school outreach program. She recently joined the SGS Advanced Orchestra, and is enjoying that a lot. During her tenure on the board, she hopes to continue the SGS tradition of school outreach, bringing quality guitar opportunities to students in the greater Sacramento area.
