Music and Massage: Linda Norton

Linda Norton, Class of 2004, Watertown, CT

What are you up to? I’m 34 years old and I’m a licensed massage therapist for the state of CT for 8 years. I’m the owner of Relaxing Getaway Massage at 621 Main St. in Watertown, which I established 2 years ago. Currently, I’m also a member of The Hartford Chorale. I’ve been a second soprano with them for 2 years now.

Also, I’m an auntie to eight nieces and nephews, one step-niece, and one-step nephew. Pictured is my niece Isabella (Bella) & I at a Taylor Swift concert. We are both big fans!

How'd you get here? I have been singing in school choirs since second grade and I was a member of WHS choir from 2000-2004. I went to Naugatuck Valley Community College and joined their choir and opera society ensemble. While pursuing my associates degree in Liberal Arts, I also attended music classes (music theory, ear training, etc).

What are your goals? I would love to be a member of a Glee Club, where they sing radio and broadway hits and gives members a chance to have solos or duets.

If you could tell your high school self one thing, what would it be? Be in the moment!
