BELFAST — We are delighted to announce the continuation of the Belfast UU Youth Chorus, a free and enriching ensemble in support of young singers.
The Belfast UU Youth Chorus is a safe, fun and musically challenging environment for young singers in the Mid-Coast area. The chorus is open to all singers ages 12-18, rehearsing and performing a broad range of traditional and contemporary material. This ensemble is ideal for young vocalists who are seeking a supportive musical community in which to develop their own voices and musical skills. Singers will exercise their abilities to learn by ear, broaden their vocal range, hone their intonation, and carry complex harmonies in small groups. We meet once a week on Monday evenings from 7-8 p.m. Singers may also choose to share their work at 1-2 services a month on Sunday mornings — no church affiliation required.
The choir is led by Ethan Tischler, local musician and music educator. Tischler has over 10 years experience teaching and directing music in both youth and adult ensembles. In addition to leading the Belfast UU Youth Chorus, he teaches at the Children’s House Montessori School in Camden, at Bagaduce Music Library in Blue Hill, and in the public schools as a teaching artist with Belfast Flying Shoes. He also performs with the Gawler Family Band, the duo Elsie & Ethan, and the trio Springtide.
