Scott County Children's Chorus

10/03/2020

Dear SCCC Family,

We have missed making music together and look forward to the time when we’re able to be together again. Although many organizations have been able to find alternative ways of continuing their mission while caring for the need for safety of the members, choral groups have not been able to safely continue. We have paid attention to recommendations from the Kentucky Music Educators Association as well as studies on safe distancing for singers. The most recent study results, cited on the BBC, led to a recommendation of maintaining 5 feet side to side and 8 feet front to back between singers in a well-ventilated space. Trying to hold rehearsal either in these conditions or outside each week (while social distancing) would unrecognizably alter the nature of our making choral music together.

The Scott County Children’s Chorus offers an important connection of great people singing great music, and we will meet together again to enjoy making music together when we can do so safely and in a musically satisfying way. In the meantime, please continue to sing at home and to listen to good choral music. Your directors recommend searching YouTube for recordings of children’s choirs singing some of your favorite songs. Here’s a couple to get you started: join in with a choir singing I Am a Small Part of the World https://youtu.be/VzD83blHkFM or sing along with the Toronto Children’s Chorus as they perform Don’t Ever Squeeze a Weasel! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBIuAu0glkI&list=PL- xGGzP8EfLLeD22poxPrDoj3x2xS5q6I&index=81&t=0s.

Please plan to connect with us in person as soon as we can safely gather again. We miss you and look forward to that time.

Sincerely,
Scott County Children’s Chorus Directors and Executive Board

If you’re debating on signing your child up for the Spring Semester, this might be the evidence you need😊

The Spring Semester starts, Monday January 27th at 6pm. We meet at the First Presbyterian Church on Main Street in Georgetown.

Group bonding, synchronized brain waves, and mood elevation. Psychology professor Daniel Levitin explains why the 3.5 million Canadians singing in choirs are doing it right.
