Do you have a kid who loves to sing & dance?
For all youth who are ready to let loose! Using videos for home practice + a few in-person rehearsals, we'll prepare a special performance for the Valley Voices spring concert on June 21st, 2025, complete with energetic singing & choreography. There's nothing quite like the exhilaration of performing well for a large audience!
-------------------------------
What: We'll be singing two songs at a community choir concert held at the United Methodist Church (by the library). The first song is our pop feature - "Fight Song" by Rachel Platten & covered by Kidz Bop Kids! This will be memorized & choreographed, with a karaoke track. The second song will be with the adult choir on the America the Beautiful melody, several verses.
Home Rehearsals: Every singer will receive a link to the learning videos where you will learn your parts at home before you come to the group rehearsals.
Group Rehearsals:
1. Tuesday, June 10, 6:00pm (at Ellensburg Presbyterian Church)
2. Tuesday, June 17, 6:00pm (at the Ellensburg Presbyterian Church)
3. Friday, June 20, dress rehearsal, evening time TBD between 5-7pm (at the United Methodist Church)
--> Saturday, June 21st, show time! Call time will probably be 6pm & show starts at 6:30pm. (Methodist Church)
Cost: $20, due at the first group rehearsal. (BTW, we have several scholarships available. Please let us know if that would help your family.)
