Senior Choir
“I used to be a person who didn’t like being the centre of attention, and doing things on my own, but choir has changed that, and made me more confident, and more independent, by taking risks, trying new things that I haven’t done before. Which in turn, helped me become a better more stronger individual.”
Welcome to Senior Choir!

ARE LOOKING FOR A CHOIR THAT STRIVES FOR ARTISTRY
LOVE CONNECTING AND COLLABORATING WITH OTHER SINGERS
ARE OPEN TO ALL TYPES AND STYLES OF MUSIC
Enthusiastic and energetic, this group of keen teenagers loves to sing and socialize! This choir provides a powerful means for these young musicians to express themselves musically and provides a complete musical education - teaching healthy vocal production techniques, strong musicianship and aural skills. Emphasis in this choir is also put on leadership, community building, and learning to use our stronger voices to be a positive influence not only for each other, but in their communities.
These choristers are friendly, welcoming, dedicated and committed and strive for excellence in their singing and musicianship. Repertoire is eclectic, challenging and includes a wide range of musical styles, from classical, to folk songs from around the world, spirituals, pop, jazz, and pieces expressly written for young developing voices.
This choir sings more frequently than our other choirs, performing at AVHC concerts, in the community, music festivals/workshops both at home and abroad.
AVHC Senior Choir is conducted by Heather Fraser.
Rehearsals: Tuesdays at St James Anglican Church Hall, 18 Prospect Ave. Kentville
Lower Voices: 5:45 - 8:30
Upper Voices: 6:20 - 9:00
How to Join?
All of our choirs overlap in age, and it is essential for each young artist’s development that they are placed in the choir level that is right for them! Senior Choir singers are asked to participate in an audition process, where the director will determine if the senior choir is the right fit, based on their age, and musical experience. Find out what to expect at your Audition.
