Our Choirs
Children's CHorus (grades K-5)
Our Children's Chorus (grades K-5) is for kids who love to sing! No experience necessary – but all singers must be able to match pitch. Each rehearsal includes quality vocal instruction and music movement activities. Singers are exposed to songs in a variety of genres, languages, keys, tempos and styles in preparation for annual Christmas and Spring concerts. Music theory instruction is included (singers are invited to arrive as early as 4:30 for theory study and social time). Children's Chorus singers participate in annual Christmas and Spring Concerts and the Youth Choir Festival NW, learning about 20 new choir songs each year.

Youth Chorus (grades 6-12 & college)
Our Youth Chorus is for teens and young adults who have a passion for singing, open to singers in middle school, high school and college. No choral experience necessary, but singers must be able to match pitch and have a desire to improve their vocal/music theory skills within a team environment. Each rehearsal includes advanced level vocal instruction working with music in a variety of genres, languages, keys, tempos and styles. A high volume of challenging and rewarding repertoire in 2-8 parts is learned and memorized each season. Music theory instruction is included (singers are invited to arrive at 6:30 for theory study and social time). Youth Chorus singers participate in annual Christmas and Spring Concerts, Youth Choir Festival NW and our week-long Honor Choir Camp in Aug. Many of our Youth Chorus graduates have gone on to major in music in college, become music teachers, section leaders and professional musicians.
