CAMPANELLA PROGRAMS: PRELUDE CHOIR

Registration deadline: 09/01/2020

Grades K-2

Instructor: Marianna Kosaya

FALL SEMESTER: 09/12/2020 - 01/17/2021

No classes: November 26-27; December 24-January 3.

​

​

SUBJECTS OFFERED:

Choir singing (small group outside, to move online at the cold weather)

Children learn to appreciate music, listen to their own voice and to the choir, sing in tune (matching pitch), and develop articulation, focusing on the major vowels and consonants.

They are guided on proper breathing while singing, and play with simple percussion instruments to develop a sense of rhythm and rhythmic coordination through fun and dynamic age appropriate activities.

​

Singers will have an opportunity to participate in the virtual choir project at the end of the semester.

Good Night with Classical Music

Goodnight with Classical Music storytelling sessions use beautiful illustrations, art masterpieces, and classical music to immerse in the magical worlds of Hans Christian Andersen, Rudyard Kipling, and World folclore. We will lead guided listening to the music of Dimitry Shostakovich, Bobby McFerrin, Sergei Prokofiev, Igor Stravinsky, Claude Debussy and others.

​

​

OUTSIDE IN-PERSON REHEARSALS:

For the small-group in person rehearsals, we have arranged an outdoor space under the tent at the North Suburban YMCA lawn.

​

Address: 

North Suburban YMCA, 2705 Techny Rd, Northbrook, IL 60062

​

Directions:

Campanella banner will be put at the YMCA parking entrance, look for the large white tent on the lawn by the south side of the building.

​

So far we have an agreement to use the space until November (weather permitting, we might stay there longer or shorter). The space is equipped with a sturdy tent, and benches/chairs. The inside YMCA restrooms are accessible to students. Hand sanitizer and disposable masks will be provided. We will be wearing masks and keep a 6’ distance during the outside activities.

To keep our students safe and motivated, his semester Campanella offers two choir program settings for the Prelude choir, a hybrid and an online only options.
