Description:
Youth Choir provides students ages 12–18 with a comprehensive choral experience centered on the study and performance of music to grow musically and glorify God. Emphasis is placed on the development of vocal technique, ensemble musicianship, polyphonic singing, sight singing, and stylistic interpretation. Students will engage with a diverse repertoire spanning traditional hymns, classical sacred works, contemporary works, spirituals, and more. Beyond the classroom, students will be expected to practice the repertoire at home. Furthermore, the choir functions as a vocal ministry, reaching others through performances in retirement communities, at Bluebonnet’s Graduation, and in Bluebonnet’s fall and spring Fine Arts Showcase events.
Bluebonnet Home Scholars also offers Form I Children’s Choir (ages 7-9) and Form II Children’s Choir (ages 9-12).
