Children's & Youth Choir
Register Below
We will soon be enrolling children and youth in 2nd through 10th grades for our 2012-2013 season. Our music education and performance program emphasizes individual understanding and development of musical skills. It is one of Northeast Ohio's premier choral arts organizations.
New singers in the 2nd and 3rd grade may join our non-audition Beginning Singing classes, then progress to our Training Division based on their own ability. New singers in the 4th through 10th grade may attend a placement interview and then, based on their own musical skill level, are placed into our Training Division or Ensemble Division into one of five class levels. Singers then progress at their own ability. We hold placement interviews in January, May and August/September.
There are two major concert performances with all singers each year -- in December and May -- at Cuyahoga Falls High School Auditorium.
