Mid-Season Auditions
Beginning and Intermediate Levels Only
Ages 8 and up
Children who sing in choruses do better in school and have higher success skills,
according to the 2009 “Chorus Impact” study, released last June. The study
surveyed educators nationwide and found that 88% think that singing in a choir
can improve a child’s overall academic performance. The benefits cited included
greater memory skills, enhanced self-confidence, and improved language and
math skills. Compared to parents whose children do not sing in choirs, chorus
parents by a substantial margin reported better grades and study habits.
Additionally, the majority of chorus parents reported improvements in their child’s
problem-solving ability, creativity, focus, self-discipline and punctuality.
Parents now have an opportunity to enroll their child in Miami Children’s Chorus,
which is holding auditions for beginning and intermediate chorus in December.
Auditions are by appointment only; call the office at 305.662.7494 or download
an audition form from www.miamichildrenschorus.org and fax it to 305.662.7495.
Miami Children’s Chorus offers high quality vocal music instruction to youth in
Miami. Chorus members have the opportunity to sing in concerts, private
performances, community events, and with Florida Grand Opera. In a survey of
Miami Children’s Chorus parents, 41% of parents reported their children got
better grades as a result of being in MCC, and 75% reported that their child had
improved social skills. 96% said that overall, participation in MCC had positively
affected their child.

In addition to developing musical skills, parents reported their children were more
responsible, more disciplined, more self-confident, and worked better with others.
“He has seen first hand the importance of teamwork and hard work,” said one
parent. Another said their child “now understands (the) relationship between
dedication and results.” Parents also reported their children have become more
responsible, more focused, more sociable, and more confident. And, it should be
added, they have fun singing in the Chorus.
