EVC - Where Every Voice MattersEvery Voice Choirs helps young people discover their voices and share them with pride. We are music educators who empower children by teaching them to share their voices confidently through their singing and throughout their lives.
Based at Columbia University Teachers College, EVC is unique for bringing exceptional choral training to ALL children. Everyone ages 7-16 is welcome in EVC's core choirs - Kids Choir and Youth Choir - without audition. EVC's choirs are led by Columbia faculty who are leaders in choral education, and all of EVC's singers perform at premiere NYC venues. Recognizing how deeply personal the voice is, EVC builds on students' experience, ability, and interests, helping them set goals for their vocal, musical, and personal development, and working with them to achieve those goals. Students are nurtured as musical thinkers and leaders who improvise freely, create their own songs, and share their voices and their ideas throughout the process of learning and performing. For EVC singers who seek additional, rigorous choral training, the Concert Choir provides the opportunity to perform challenging works, including world premieres, in collaborations with adult choirs and orchestras. The Concert Choir's fourth Carnegie Hall performance will take place in May 2020 with The Cecilia Chorus and Orchestra. |
