Passport to Boychoir
Our Passport to Boychoir program is for young singers who would like to sing without the pressure of an audition or mainstage concert. Each session runs for 6 weeks, one evening a week, and includes singing, playing instruments, games, and stories. Boys practice fundamental skills in music and ensemble singing. Learning is experiential and play-based. No audition necessary.
Spring session: February 24 – April 2, 2020
