Colla Voce Children's Chorus (CVCC)
Do you know a child who loves to sing?
Music can transport us to untraveled worlds. It can tie people together into a family. It can be transformative and life changing. Whatever race, culture, or religion, all share the universal language of music.
Colla Voce of the Sierra is excited to have launched a Children's Chorus for the Auburn-Colfax area. This youth choral program has musicianship at its core, and includes solfege, rhythmic dictation, melodic reading and vocal training. They are now scheduling auditions for the spring season and would like to welcome your child into the program through a brief interview and audition for chorus placement.
The Chorus’ (CVCC) first season started with one choir, Giocoso (beginning treble choir, ages 6-10) and will perform again in May with the adult ensemble, Colla Voce Chamber Singers.
The semester fee for Giocoso is $235 and this includes music and materials. CVCC has a multiple sibling discount of $50 per semester for the 2nd child and $75 per semester for the 3rd child or more. Full or partial scholarships are available.
Giocoso meets on Wednesdays, from 4:15 - 5:15 at Faith Lutheran Church in Meadow Vista, 1115 Combie Road. New members will be welcome through the end of February.
CVCC has been invited to join Athanasia Kyriakidou and her 70–voice youth choir in concert in Thesaloniki, Greece, June of 2014, and will be hosted in the homes of the young Greek singers.
Supporters of this Auburn area youth choir are excited to build a vibrant choral group for young people that will represent the community locally and abroad, as well as enrich and transform the lives our our youth.
