AMONG SOUTH FLORIDA ARTISTS
The Girl Choir of South Florida Click to Listen: When Jesus Wept by William Billings
The Girl Choir of South Florida was founded by Artistic Director Wallis Peterson on March 21, 2005, in response to the need for a choral music program sensitive to girls’ unique needs and abilities. The founding purposes of its nonprofit, nondenominational mission are:• to exemplify and teach vocal excellence and technique to form well-rounded musicians,
• to present singing and choral performances of the of the highest artistic and musical caliber,
• to build self-esteem and character in girls and young women in the hopes that they will always be relevant and contributing members of society, and
• to promote and foster community interest and understanding of choral singing, and to aid in the advancement of our national culture through the medium of music.
Since that time, the Girl Choir has become an important part of choral music education and performance for girls and young women ages 7 through 18. More than 100 singers from public, private, and home schools in 21 cities throughout South Florida participate its program. Its artistic staff brings decades of award-winning professional educational experience in voice, theory, movement, and performance to its members each season.
The organization is comprised of three choruses – Primes 1, Primes 2, and Concert Choir – which afford girls of all ages and skill levels an opportunity to participate. Its program includes vocal instruction, a multi-level music theory curriculum, public performances, and opportunities for personal development.Each season, all choristers participate in major performance events in the fall and spring, as well as numerous private, community, and charitable events. Members of the Girl Choir have toured nationally, participated in choral music festivals, appeared on television, and appeared in productions by Florida Grand Opera.
