Tremble Clefs was founded in Scottsdale Arizona in 1994. In 2018 we incorporated and were granted nonprofit status by the IRS.
Voice loss, decreased voice volume, voice with a monotone quality are common symptoms of Parkinson's disease.
Regular participation in our singing groups strengthens the vocal chords. Participation keeps members active and engaged, resulting in new-found energy.
