Youth Choir
In Youth Choir, students 8 to 12 will learn about their vocal anatomy and how the voice works. Students will learn how to properly warm up their voices to sing as well as techniques for expanding breath control and range. There will be a strong emphasis on learning to read music as it applies to choral works as well as sight-reading, the ability to learn music without having heard it first. Students will apply these newly-developed skills as they learn repertoire from a variety of genres. Please click here to listen to a sample of our fine musicians.

Concert Choir
Concert Choir is an ensemble for singers 12 and up, or by audition for children who are 11. Previous participation in the Bel Canto Youth Choir for 2 years or private lessons on an instrument qualify 11 year old students to audition for this group. In Concert Choir, students will continue to focus on music literacy while learning to perform music that is of greater technical difficulty. Students considering this ensemble should be highly motivated to practice their music on their own as well as interested in taking their own stage presence to an advanced level.
