Emmanuel Children's Choral AcademyProviding the best musical opportunities of children is a top priority at Emmanuel. The Emmanuel Children’s Choral Academy is open to all children of Aquidneck Island and Jamestown from the ages 8 to 14. Church membership is not required. Inspired by the English Cathedral choir schools, the Choral Academy’s mission is to teach children to sing the finest choral music to the best of their ability, with understanding to its place and purpose and to express the love and joy of God and Jesus Christ in their lives and the lives of others through music.The children rehearse on Tuesday afternoon’s from 3:45 during the school term. There they are taught to sing with good technique, to read music as well as learn how the music they sing is appropriate to the liturgy. They learn the same hymns, service music and anthems the Parish Choir sings. They participate with the Parish Choir every Sunday adding to the wonderful sound of the soprano section. The children have participated in the 2007 Chorister’s Festival at St. Bartholomew’s Church in New York City. For more information and to arrange a personal interview, contact John Totter, Director of Music at music@emmanuelnewport.org or 401-847-0675. |
