The THCC offers three different choirs to accommodate the singing experience of every child:
Sing Up! Is a foundational choir generally for ages 6 and 7 which focuses on vocal exploration, finding the singing voice, and experiencing singing in a choral group through the use of simple melodies, engaging singing games and movement activities. Goals for this group are to develop the focus, aural skills and basic music-reading skills that prepare them for choral performance
on a more advanced level. They perform on the final concert and perhaps on one other performance as the occasion arises.
Lyric Choir is an intermediate choral group generally for ages 8 – 11 whose members sing in the treble range. Students in this group should be able to match pitch and be ready to follow the music score, Focus is on singing in tune and developing a pure choral tone. They begin with unison singing and reading very simple rhythmic and pitch patterns and then progress to singing
2-part music. Good singing technique is central to the instruction, as well as continued development of aural and reading skills. They generally will have at least one performance in addition to the final concert.
