Welcome to our world of
Music, Friendship, and Fun
Are you ready to embark on a journey filled with laughter, music, and new friendships? The Enchorus Children’s Choir is accepting new members who love to sing and wish to discover the joy of expressing themselves through music. Whether you sing in the shower, hum along to your favourite songs, or are just curious about discovering your own voice, you are invited to come to one of our rehearsals to see what we’re all about and hopefully become part of our Enchorus family.
Joining a children’s choir is more than just learning to sing. It’s an experience that unlocks creativity, builds confidence, and fosters a sense of community. Here are just a few reasons why joining the Enchorus Children’s Choir could be a wonderful opportunity for you:
Discover the Magic of Music:
Singing in a choir helps you experience music in a whole new way. You’ll learn about rhythm, melody, harmony, and how voices come together to create something beautiful.
Make New Friends:
Our choir is a place where lasting friendships are formed. You’ll meet other youth from different backgrounds who share your love of music, and together you’ll create memories that last a lifetime.
Build Confidence:
Performing in front of an audience might feel scary at first, but with support and encouragement, you’ll find your confidence growing with each rehearsal and performance.
Learn and Grow:
Choir members learn to work together, listen to each other, and celebrate each other’s successes. These skills are valuable not just in music, but in life!
