Youth and Children's Music Program

YOUTH AND CHILDREN'S CHOIR

Let your child experience the joy of music!

The UUCB Youth and Children's Choir is led by Michèle Voillequé and is open to all, ages 5.5 and up. Prior musical experience is not required.

The Choir regularly participates in Sunday worship services and performs at other church music events.

Musical goals for the singers include:
To make a beautiful vocal sound naturally
To be prepared and relaxed performers
To develop round- and part-singing ability
To achieve excellence, mutual respect and kindness in our music-making.

Choir members are expected to be on time, display a positive attitude, show respect for themselves and others, take good care of their music, stole and/or costume, and attend every rehearsal, every performance and every retreat as their health allows. Helping to lead worship services is an important responsibility. Choir members and their families are willing to make the Choir a priority in their lives.

Rehearsals

The Choir rehearses September to May on Thursday evenings from 5:00 - 5:45 p.m. in the Sanctuary. Many Choir members and their families stay for Thursday Night Supper after rehearsal.

The 2007-08 year begins on Thursday, September 6. This first rehearsal will be for Choir members and their families and we will share a potluck meal in the Atrium.

On the Sundays when we participate in the worship service, we meet in the Choir Room at 10:00 a.m.to warm-up and rehearse.

Performances

This fall, the Choir will participate in approximately two worship services a month, and in the Music Party (concert) on Saturday, November 18.

Please check the schedule to find out more.
