| Comments: | This chorus is a remarkable opportunity for families who cannot afford unsubsidized programs. The quality of instruction is very high with an emphasis on teamwork and enjoyment of music. All children are welcome as long as they have a desire to sing and be part of a group. In extreme cases, even the $25 annual fee can be waived. In addition, the chorus members have a chance to hear other musicians and increase their music appreciation." |
