HistoryFounded in 1991 by sisters Janeal Crabb Krehbiel and Marilyn Crabb Epp, the Lawrence Children's Choir has grown from one 40-voice choir to an organization comprised of six choirs serving approximately 250 singers from Northeast Kansas, including the communities of Lawrence, Perry, Emporia, Osage City, Topeka, Baldwin City and Eudora. Current choirs include Capo, for preschool-kindergarten students; Cadenza, for kindergarten-3rd grade students; Choristers for 3rd-6th grade students; Tour Choir for 5th-10th grade students; the Ambassador Choir for 8th-10th grade students, and the Crescendo Choir, for senior citizens. Upon Janeal Krehbiel's retirement in April, 2012, long-time assistant Carolyn Welch assumed the position of Artistic Director.SpecialtiesThe Lawrence Children's Choir provides the opportunity to experience musical excellence and to develop positive character qualities in any student with the desire to sing. Musical excellence is provided through age-appropriate choral music, including, for our upper choirs, challenging works by master composers; musicianship training in vocal technique; the inspiration and joy of shared musical harmony; and the fulfillment that comes from public performance. We believe that aspiring to excellence develops the positive character traits of persistence, honesty, responsibility, stamina, courage, cooperation, and self-discipline.
