Program

  1. Music education and training for 5 choirs of approximately 150 boys in total: Music Magic is an enrichment program for 6 and 7 year old boys who are interested in learning more about music, singing and having fun. This is an 8 week program offered every school semester. Music Magic brings music alive for the boys through the use of movement, singing, musical games and instruments. The boys develop better large muscle coordination, pitch matching, increased focus, rhythm awareness and musicianship. Training Choir is our introductory choir where techniques in phrasing, enunciation and choral blend are introduced. Boys learn the disciplines of the organization and perform predominantly in the local area. Choirboys move up to either Town or Tour Choirs by audition. Town Choir stresses choral techniques in phrasing, enunciation, and multi-part harmonizing. Music becomes more complex. Performances are usually local, although more varied in nature. The Town Choir also competes every spring in the choir festival in New Braunfels, TX. Placement into Tour Choir is through audition at any time. As our top-level professional group, The Tour Choir emphasizes extensive choral techniques. Music…

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $30k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
