Bainbridge Chorale Young Singers

Bainbridge Chorale has been committed to sharing the joy of choral music with singers and audiences since 1971. In 2007 we expanded our vision to include singers of all ages with the inauguration of the Bainbridge Chorale Young Singers program for Grades 1-8.

Here's what some parents of Young Singers have had to say about the program:

"We were amazed at the variety and scope of material by all ages!"

"Our daughter really appreciated Mr. Rothbaum's enthusiasm, energy, and choice of music. I was so impressed with the rounds that the 1-3 graders do, and loved seeing the older children stepping out of the comfort of their choir and doing solos, duos, trios, etc."

"Our child loved the structure and the challenge. Very few expect so much and extract it with a smile."

"Mr. Rothbaum is AMAZING! He truly is a gifted and talented educator. The children on Bainbridge Island are blessed by his work and commitment."

"Our daughter's experience far and away exceeded our expectations. Before Chorale it was not pleasant to hear her sing. Now, she sounds like she knows how to sing and is proud of it! Really, we are amazed by how she sounds now. We are very pleased."

 

 

ABOUT OUR DIRECTOR

Jeremy Rothbaum is well-known in the music community for his involvement as an educator and performer.

He has had more than twenty-five years of training, education and teaching experience in the field of youth music, and is best known locally for his position as the

music specialist at Blakely Elementary School. Our Young Singers enjoy Mr. Rothbaum's

choral experience fun and rewarding, as he maintains high expectations for

musical excellence. Mr. Rothbaum's energetic personality and his remarkable skills as a pianist and music arranger, make our Young Singers program truly unique. High quality group performances reflect his attention to detail and dedication to the success of each individual singer.

MEET THE DIRECTOR

Prior to registering for regular 10-week sessions, those singers who have not previously worked with Mr. Rothbaum, either in his Blakely School classes or Young Singers classes, are asked to schedule a Meet-the-Director appointment, in which basic pitch-matching skills as well as the child's general readiness to participate will be assessed. It is not necessary to prepare a song for this appointment.

 

To schedule an appointment, please e-mail info@bainbridgechorale.org or call the Chorale office at 780-2467.
