Choir School Primer Level

CHOIR SCHOOL LEVEL ONE: The Choir School is a comprehensive choral training program for children founded in the spring of 2014 by choral director Susan Dedell. Due to the success of the program, the choir school is expanding! Beginning on Thursday, February 4, the Choir School will offer a new class specially designed for incoming singers ages 6,7or 8. The program runs for a half hour from 3:45-4:15, although children may arrive as early as 3:30 for a healthy snack.

In this half hour, students will learn basic concepts of rhythm, pitch and “choircraft” in addition to singing some wonderful music. No prior musical experience is needed, just the love of singing and the desire to learn more. Although the program is funded and hosted by St. Michael’s Episcopal Church, no church affiliation is necessary. In addition to the thrill of singing with others, choral singing is a wonderful way to foster poise, respect of self and others, commitment, leadership, and teamwork. The Choir School programs are free of charge. Talk to director Susan Dedell if you have any questions or need more information. Susan can be contacted at sdedell@sover.net, by phone at 802-348-7735, or leave a message at the church office, 802 254-6048.
