ECC's Fall Fundraiser
October 20 - November 3
The Evergreen Children’s Chorale is beginning our 30th year of bringing beautiful youth choir music to the mountain communities. The 2nd-8th grade members of ECC are working harder than ever this fall in the midst of the pandemic which has brought additional challenges to all of our lives, and along with it an even greater need to have the joy that music brings!
We’re so grateful for the members of our community who support our mission of inspiring and engaging young performers through quality experiences that create community and nurture a love of the arts. Please consider supporting our fall fundraiser through the purchase of fruit, Butter Braid pastries, or a direct donation to our nonprofit organization.
Thank you for your support!
Prelude
Prelude is ECC's group of 2nd-4th graders. Led by Music Director Lisa Cole, these students learn the foundations of choral singing, acting, public speaking, and the confidence to perform for an audience. In addition to their choir and musical theater productions, these students have a variety of other community performance opportunities, such as at our annual trip to the Life Care Center of Evergreen.
ECC's Company
ECC's Company is comprised of students in 5th-8th grade who are ready to take their performing arts experience to a new level. Students from all backgrounds are encouraged to audition regardless of prior arts experience, but should be prepared to work hard toward a professional quality choir production. Under the Artistic direction of Lindy Casados and Stage Director Gail Montgomery, our members receive high-quality instruction, work as a team, build confidence, and improve their artistic abilities.

History
The Evergreen Children’s Chorale was formed in January, 1991, upon the successful completion of an SCFD (Scientific and Cultural Facilities District) grant written by Jenise Harper. Jenise and others from the community recognized a need in the mountain area for a high-quality music choir and performance ensemble specifically designed for children.
In June of 1991, ECC made their debut with a concert titled, Kids Take Center Stage. From that point on ECC has performed many other concerts and musical classics such as Annie, The Little Mermaid, Willy Wonka, Seussical , Beauty and the Beast, and The Music Man.
