Magnolia Youth Choir
About Magnolia Youth Choir
Join our warm, welcoming community of young singers!
Magnolia Youth Choir (MYC) is a fun, welcoming community where young singers learn to use their voices with confidence and joy. Through playful warm-ups, rounds, and modern songs kids actually love (think Taylor Swift, The Beatles, Rihanna, and Big Thief), we build musical skills naturally — by ear, through movement, and in community. No prior experience or sheet music reading required.
Rehearsals focus on:
Healthy vocal foundations + harmony-building
Listening, blending, and expressive performance
Movement and fun
Optional solos and small ensemble moments
Our teen assistants help model joy, confidence, and connection in every class.
Spring semester runs mid-January through late April, with a community concert on Saturday, April 25 (afternoon).

If your child attends the first one or two rehearsals and decides choir isn’t the right fit, let us know by the end of week two for a full refund.
Testimonials
“Our daughters love MYC! Kat chooses music they are excited to sing! She creates a joyful learning environment where they feel comfortable to stretch and take risks as singers and performers. The end of semester shows are beautiful and fun for the whole family. We all adore Kat and highly recommend Magnolia Youth Choir!”
“My daughter is involved in so many activities (choir, dance, soccer, swim, and soon to be softball)— I asked her last week what her favorite is and she said CHOIR! You have created such an awesome community for these kids, thank you!”
