Youth Programs

Fairfax Choral Society Youth Programs
The Fairfax Choral Society is continuing to grow and expand its youth program offerings. We now offer two Youth Chorus Campuses (which include musicianship classes) and additional Musicianship Classes for young children and high school students.

Leading these Youth Programs are Patrick Vaughn, Director of Youth Choruses and Caroline Crocker, Director of Youth Education.

FCS Youth Choruses - Central Campus in Annandale, VA
The Youth Choruses provide young singers in grades PreK-12 the opportunity to expand their vocal experience in an auditioned, graded choral program. They have sung for schools, the DC United, with the American Youth Philharmonic Orchestra, the Alexandria Choral Society, at the White House, Carnegie Hall, for the Microsoft Government Leaders Forum, at the Wolf Trap Performing Arts Center, with the FCS Adult Chorus, and with other youth choruses throughout Virginia.  Weekly rehearsals at our Central Campus in Annandale are held on Monday evenings at Annandale United Methodist Church.

Announcing the Fairfax Choral Society:  West Campus in Herndon, VA
Our West Campus Youth Chorus officially launched in September 2011!  Based in Herndon, the choruses at this campus include children ages 5-13.  Weekly rehearsals incorporating both musicianship classes and choir rehearsal time are held on Tuesday evenings at Herndon United Methodist Church. 

Other Youth Education Classes
At our Annandale campus, we also have an Early Childhood Musicianship Class for children ages 2 - 4, and are planning to offer an Advanced Placement Music Theory for high school students beginning in 2012.
