Discover the joys of group singing!

The Makana Youth Choirs are the place to develop healthy singing habits, learn musical literacy skills, and put on a concert. All while having fun with your friends.

INTRODUCING A NEW AGE GROUP!

Makana Kids for Grades 2–5 | Fridays 3pm–4pm
NEW Makana Youth for Grades 6–9 | Fridays 4pm–5pm

End of term concert Sunday November 27 | 2:30pm

 
Students will have weekly rehearsals in preparation for a concert at the end of the term. Classes will focus on learning repertoire including pop, folk, classical, and music from all over the world. Our most recent concert included songs by Imagine Dragons, the Beatles, a Hawaiian folk song, children’s nursery rhyme arrangement, and a gospel spiritual. Singers will be exposed to a wide variety of styles and singing techniques.

Classes will also focus on developing healthy singing techniques for individuals and choral ensembles, as well as a focus on reading music using Kodaly methodologies. The name Makana is the Hawaiian word for “gift” and these classes offer a gift that will stay with your children for the rest of their lives.

Fee: $147 per term – Financial assistance is available upon request
Registration: ArtSpring Box Office. Box office open Tue-Fri, 10am-2pm. Or call 250.537.2102 | email tickets@artspring.ca

The Makana Youth Choirs are directed by Caroni Young. She is a sought-after music educator and clinician. Caroni strongly believes in music education for children, and has worked as a music teacher and choir director for several school districts. Her passion is singing and choral music and she believes that everyone can sing! Caroni graduated from UBC this spring with a Masters of Choral Conducting, where she was directing large university choirs ranging from 20 to 130 singers. She is the current artistic director of Viva Chorale! community choir and directs the Vancouver Youth Choir ensemble “Tiny” for children in Kindergarten to grade two.

We look forward to singing with you!
