Sing Joyfully - Twin Cities Children's Choir Festival 2024

This Twin Cities Children's Choir Festival is open to children in second through sixth grades from any congregation or community choir, or any child who simply loves to sing. They will learn with world-renowned choir director Phillip Shoultz—the associate artistic director of VocalEssence and cantor for worship, music, and the arts at Westwood Lutheran Church. While the choir is rehearsing, church musicians are invited to participate in two continuing education sessions and attend an open rehearsal with the choir. Katie Houts, sacred music choral editor for Choristers Guild, and Mari Espeland, children's choir director at Mount Olive Lutheran Church, will be the clinicians for the continuing education sessions.

The registration fee includes lunch for everyone and music, folders, and t-shirts for the child participants. If the registration fee is beyond your budget, scholarships are available upon request. Please email Sally Messner, Hennepin's director of worship & music, at [email protected] for information about scholarships.

This event is sponsored by the Association of Lutheran Church Musicians, Choristers Guild, and Thrivent Financial.
