I think the huge header is effective if you give us something more worthwhile to look at, this header though busy has no real substance. The gradients for the Connections side bar is way way too much, subtlety will do you better. I think you could have more fun with the footer. Besides that I think the colors are very very appealing

Hey Analise, thanks for the feedback. The soul purpose of the header is just for wow factor. Not really for function. The site is aimed to draw potential chorus members in through the use of complex graphics. The chorus members come from a younger demographic. Mostly around 14-18. Some as young as 12.
