Young Choristers Program
A Program based in the RSCM tradition
At Christ Church, we believe the youth of the congregation should be leaders in the church's life, whether that be as a reader, an acolyte, or a member of the choir. The Young Choristers Program trains youth to be church leaders through music. Young Choristers are active in the leading of the hymns, singing the anthems, and helping to enliven congregational worship. The curriculum is based off the Royal School of Church Music (RSCM), which is a highly respected program used from over 50,000 churches around the world.
Choristers meet once a week for rehearsal and sing on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month during the regular choir season (September-June). They are taught such things as: how to read music, using the voice well, good posture, how to process down the aisle, musical terminology, repertoire, and history of music. In addition to musical learning, choristers learn about theology, how the Episcopal service is structured, the Bible, The Book of Common Prayer, team building, and character development.
