Celebrating Our 10th Anniversary Season!
The Cor Capriccio Children’s Choir (grades 2 - 5) invites young singers to explore music from around the world under the inspiring direction of Elizabeth Clifton, early childhood music specialist. Young singers build skills, confidence and creativity – singing in multiple languages, connecting with text and music, and making new friends.
​Cor Capriccio offers many benefits to the young singer. Each week, they exercise their bodies and minds as well as their voices. They learn songs to sing but also develop a deeper understanding of tonality, rhythm, musical form, dynamics, and general musicianship. They play singing games and learn to communicate the meaning of a song as well as the notes on a page. While they sing, they work on important skills such as teamwork and self-discipline.
Tuition is $200 per semester or $400 for the entire year from September through May. Installment payments can be arranged. Also, financial assistance is available, email cappellafestiva@gmail.com for more information. All financial assistance inquiries will be kept confidential.
Schedule: Our choir season runs from September to May. Rehearsals take place at St. John's Lutheran Church at 55 Wilbur Blvd, Poughkeepsie every Wednesday from 5:30 - 6:30 pm.​​​​
