Calling all young people who love to sing.
Vivo Children’s Choir is getting ready to kick off the 2018/19 season, and new members are invited to check it out. Rehearsals start Wednesday, Sept. 12 at 4 p.m. at Olivet Baptist Church.
There will also be a “Bring a Friend” day on Sept. 26 if anyone wants to check out the choir.
The choir has three levels: Animoso, for singers in grades 2 and 3; Bravura, for grades 4 and 5; and Concento, for singers in Grade 6 and up.
Auditions aren’t required, and all children are welcome. They’ll start by learning the basic of good vocal tone and musical phrasing and work their way into singing in parts, in public performances and in choral festivals. There are two main concerts a year – one before Christmas, and one in the springtime.
The choir is led by artistic directors Carrie Taylor, music teacher at Burnaby Central Secondary School, and Ingrid Verseveldt, a pianist and piano teacher in Burnaby. (A third artistic director, Anne Wilson Unger, is on sabbatical for 2018/19).
