A group of choir students performing on stage.

Choral

Song touches the soul and expresses every human emotion.

Whether students are novices or have years of lessons and performance experience, students will learn the basics, such as reading music, note reading, counting rhythms, and identifying key and time signatures. Correct breathing techniques will become second nature, leading to proper vocal techniques and confidence in the singing voice. 

Dream Without Boundaries

Everyone starts somewhere, why not dream without boundaries and set the bar at G in the high 10th octave? Students passionate about choral music can begin in a foundational class and work toward a Carnegie Hall performance. 

Grow With Your Voice

We offer a beginning choir in middle school, high school men’s and women’s choirs, an auditioned traditional chamber choir, and a highly competitive auditioned contemporary a cappella ensemble, Voices uKnighted.

“Oh sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth. Sing to the Lord, bless his name; tell of his salvation from day to day.”  - Psalm 47:6

Instrumental

Music is more than chords, notes, and rhythms - music takes us on a journey.

Theatre

Learning comes alive on the stage through play, humor, and laughter.

Visual Arts
