AVYAAuroville Youth Choir
Description
Choir singing is an enjoyable activity where the children learn songs from different countries, and different music styles. The songs are sang unison or in two or three parts form; both a capella or with piano accompaniment; and in some occasions together with other choirs and other musicians.
The aim of this work is to provide a refined level of singing, to help children to grow on the understanding and appreciation of music, and experience qualities such as harmony, joy, beauty and unity.
The Auroville Children Choir meets once a week for regular practice and occasionally before a concert twice or even three times a week. Every year, the choir is active from July to April, and usually performs twice a year.
