About the Frederick Children's Chorus

For twenty-five years of music making with young voices, the mission of The Frederick Children's Chorus has been to offer each participant an opportunity to learn to love and experience songs that would probably never make it in the mass market of radio, TV, and the recording industry. The music the chorus sings has bones and flesh. It carries richly composed texts to new heights. Participants sing of great ideas and amazing adventures. They sing songs of love, of patriotism, of religious ideas and emotions yet to be experienced.

The Frederick Children's Chorus was founded in 1985. It offers to all children in the community an opportunity to learn to sing well, become skilled readers of musical notation, and study selections of music from many genres. We provide singers with performance experience and rehearsal practices to serve them for a lifetime.

Members of the choruses are often invited to perform for local and regional events. The chorus has performed with the Baltimore Symphony, as well as with local choruses, opera companies and orchestras. The Concert Chorus and Chamber Singers have performed in ACDA conferences and adjudicated festivals, where they have consistently received superior ratings.

Our 2009-2010 season is now underway and is full of proud accomplishments and exciting opportunites. This year we are thrilled to be celebrating our 25th anniversary! We are gathering a choir of alumni to join us for our spring 2010 concert as we celebrate this important milestone.

We enjoy making music together every week. We design our program for fun, learning, and relationship building. Our members make friends for life and they often return and visit after they've graduated and gone on to be college students.

We are looking forward to our winter concert, "A Song for Every Child", on December 12 at Oakdale High School. Go to our Events page for more information and ticket details.

On December 22nd, our Chamber Singers will be featured at the Weinberg Center for the Arts' Messiah Sing-A-Long. This will be our 15th year participating in this wonderful event. For ticket information visit www.weinbergcenter.org.

And finally, this holiday season brings us another special honor. A select group of our singers has been invited to perform at Strathmore Hall's annual winter concert - Take Joy! More information about this special event can be found at www.strathmore.org.

We hope you can join us for our last performance of this year, our Spring Concert on May 9th. Please visit our performance calendar for more information. If you have a question not answered on our site, please contact us through the “Contact Us” feature on this site or by email at officemanager@fredcc.org. E-mails are checked daily.

A note to alumni! Please join Facebook and look us up under “Frederick Children's Chorus”. We are still compiling our list of alumni for the 25th anniversary concert on May 9th, and the Facebook online community has proved itself a worthy platform for communication among alumni.
