Information for Prospective Choir Members  

The Gallatin Children’s Choir is an educational program for children.  Its mission is to provide quality music instruction while pursuing excellence in choral music performance.  Choir members will improve their unison singing skills and begin to sing two-part treble music; basic vocal technique and score reading will be developed during the rehearsals.

 The Gallatin Arts Council partially funds the organization, but the costs for a music organization are many. The purchase of music, payment for an accompanist, uniforms, rental fees, costs associated with any concert, etc., must all be covered. The tuition for singers in the choir is $125.00.  Twenty-five dollars ($25.00) is due and payable at the first rehearsal.  Remaining payments will be due in October ($25.00), November ($25.00), January ($25.00), and February ($25.00).  If you need financial assistance please make arrangements to speak privately with me. If your child becomes a member of the choir we will be happy to discuss this with you and will keep the conversation confidential.

  Each child is required to have a choir uniform.  Part of the uniform is covered in the tuition.  Each singer also will need the following items to complete the uniform:

                     Girls                                           Boys

Black Skirt                               Black Slacks 

Black Shoes                             Black Shoes

Black Tights (Winter)               Black Socks

Black Hose   (Spring)                Black Belt

   

The children selected to sing in the choir are those who demonstrate above average singing skills: children who sing with accurate pitch, can listen to a pattern and sing it back accurately, who show ability to sing a round and who are enthusiastic about singing.  If your child has these abilities he or she will enjoy singing with us!  We look forward to adding new singers to the group for the 2000-2001 Gallatin Children’s Choir!  Please contact me if you have any questions.
