Joyful Noise Carson Children’s Choir meets on Tuesdays

Carson City Symphony Association announces the Joyful Noise Carson Children’s Choir has begun its 2023 Spring Semester. Rehearsals are Tuesdays from 5:15 to 6:15 p.m., at an upstairs classroom at the First United Methodist Church, 412 W. Musser Street in Carson City. Sign ups continue until February 7.

The Choir, led by Michelle Powers, welcomes children ages 4 to 12 from Carson City and surrounding areas. Powers said, “Weekly rehearsals develop students’ musical skills, strong singing voices, and joy in music. I am excited to begin a new season of singing and playing, creating music, and making new friends!"

Tuition for the semester is free. To help offset the cost of music, supplies, insurance, the instructor’s and accompanist’s stipends, and more, parents are encouraged to join the Carson City Symphony Association, but it is not a requirement.

Joyful Noise Carson Children’s Choir, an educational program of the Carson City Symphony Association, was founded in 2017 and has been directed by Michelle Powers since fall of 2019. It is supported in part by public funds through a grant from the Nevada Arts Council and the National Endowment for the Arts and by private donations.
