She continues to enhance her knowledge of that repertoire and seek out performing venues in which to share her love of sacred song.

She was featured as the soprano soloist in Handel’s “Messiah” with the Indian River Pops Orchestra and and she offered a sacred music program for St. Mary’s Episcopal Church’s Lenten Concert Series in Stuart. Most recently, Ms. Pimienta sang the soprano solo in Fauré’s “Requiem” and in Felix Mendelssohn’s “Hear My Prayer”, both for The Robert Sharon Chorale.
