The Oregon Children's Choir

 

Based in Eugene, Oregon, the Oregon Children's Choir was formed in January 1982 to supplement the musical training offered in local schools, by providing advanced choral experiences for talented students of music. Oregon Children's Choir rehearsals and performances throughout the choir season - as well as invitations to participate in other professional community productions - makes for a rigorous and challenging musical experience.

 

Our underlying goal is to encourage the lifelong learning and enjoyment of music.

 

The Choir has grown from one choir in 1982 to eight choirs with over 150 choristers. Choirs rehearse and perform throughout the choir season (September through June). In addition to the Oregon Children's Choir concerts there are many invitations to participate with other professional community productions.

Scholarships

Each year we have many young singers possess the talent, energy, drive and commitment that it takes to be a part of the Oregon Children's Choir, but they lack the financial means to afford it. You can help! For as little as $33 per month, you can give specifically to provide scholarship funds to help children experience this once in a lifetime opportunity. Choir fans, alumni, parents, grandparents and business are invited to become regular givers to fund scholarships that go directly to help off set tuition cost.
