Choir Registration
2024 Christmas Production with American Idol Winner Iam Tongi
Registration is now OPEN!
​
Thank you for your interest in joining the Rexburg Children's Choir. Beginning in September 2024, the choir will transition to a production-centric ensemble. Instead of signing up semester by semester, which typically required a four-month commitment, the choir will organize only when productions are announced. For example, each fall, we will assemble the choir to prepare for the Christmas concert. Once the Christmas concert concludes, the choir will be dismissed until the next production is announced, which may be a major music video or other significant performance opportunity.
As a production-centric choir, there will be no monthly tuition. Instead, there will be a one-time production fee due. This new format will help streamline our focus and free up more time for families. No auditions are required to join the choir, but we do ask that students be committed to focusing their energy and attention completely during rehearsals.
​
For our upcoming Christmas Concert with Iam Tongi, we will hold weekly rehearsals beginning September 10, 2024 and concluding the day of the concert, November 26, 2024.
​
Choir Expectations
​
Singers who join will be expected to:
-
Love to sing!
-
Commit to attend rehearsals.
-
Be on time to rehearsals.
-
Attend all rehearsals (we understand exceptions happen--please let us know if your child will miss a practice).
-
Learn their own part and practice at home. We have online resources to help with at home preparation and practice.
-
Understand that we do our best to have every child seen in video productions, but cannot guarantee it. The purpose of our videos is to inspire a global audience with our music, and accomplishing this goal may or may not include the face of every singer.
-
Have fun!
​
Age Requirements
​
Children ages 9-17 are invited to join the choir.
​
Rehearsal Times and Location
​​
Rehearsals are Tuesdays, 5:15-6:30 PM at the BYU-Idaho Spori Building.
​
Production Information
​​
Traditionally, the choir produces an annual Christmas Concert and Christmas-themed music video. We often do another music video in the Spring and sometimes have produced a spring concert. When a new production is on the horizon, we'll send out an alert several months prior to the start of rehearsals to register interested singers.
​
Fees
​​
Participation in each production requires a $140 enrollment fee. ​
​​
Additionally, singers are responsible for purchasing their own choir outfits. We try to keep costuming at $60 or less per child.
​
The First Rehearsal
​
Once you register to be a part of the choir, the next step is to show up to the first rehearsal :) During the first rehearsal, Mr. Watson will introduce singers to the music for the production, go over choir expectations in more details, and ensure all questions are answered. Parents are encouraged to be present at this first rehearsal.​​​
