here was a brief time, years ago, when Jayne Doolittle
told herself she would not go into music when she
grew up. Today, though, it’s hard for her to imagine
doing anything else.
“Music found me,” said the Columbus Choral Society’s
new artistic director and conductor. Her path, she knows,
was probably a given: She grew up in a musical family in
the Mississippi Delta.

Caledonia Middle and Caledonia High schools and is a busy
mom of two children, ages 7 and 10. But by “night,” par-
ticularly Tuesday nights since August, she is immersed in
rehearsals for “Songs of Peace, Hope and Love,” the Choral
Society’s fall concert. It will be her community debut with
the choral group. And she’s eager.
“Music speaks, and I think when you see a group of
people of every age, every race, every economic background
and different beliefs all coming together as one, a choir is
the perfect example of what community is,” said Doolittle,
who moved to Caledonia with her family in 2012. “We want
to be that safe place where you can just come and sing be-
cause you love it and enjoy making music ... .”
Her tenure with the choral group that is marking its 10th
season carries on a tradition of excellence instilled by previ-
ous directors Doug Browning, Alisa Toy and Phillip Stock-

Military brief
Luster graduates
U.S. Air Force Airman Tamorris R. Luster graduated from basic military training at Joint
Base San Antonio-Lackland in San Antonio, Texas.
The airman completed an intensive, eight-week program that included training in
military discipline and studies, Air Force core values, physical fitness, and basic warfare
principles and skills.
Airmen who complete basic training also earn four credits toward an associate in
applied science degree through the Community College of the Air Force.
Luster is the son of Tameka Coleman of Macon.
He is a 2019 graduate of Noxubee County High School in Macon.
