Our Mission Vision & Values
Our Mission
Hamilton Children’s Choir makes a difference in the lives of children and youth within the greater Hamilton community by providing young people with exceptional music instruction and performance opportunities that foster creativity, personal development and social growth.
Our Values
The Power of Teamwork – We believe we’re stronger when working together: Choristers as a choir, and our organization as part of a thriving arts community.
Personal Growth – Challenge and learning bring out the best of the joys and benefits of singing.
The Elements of our Approach
Education –
Rehearsals focus on teaching knowledge and skills in a progressive manner, both within any ensemble throughout the year and between ensembles over many years. The challenges should be suited to the level of the participant, so that opportunities are created for individual growth.
Performing –
Performances give participants a chance to showcase the products of their efforts, providing value to the community, and instilling a sense of joy in accomplishment and satisfaction in hard work amongst singers.
Touring –
Local, national, and international travel and performance intensify the experience. Tours inspire and motivate participants to work hard while rewarding them with an experiential learning opportunity to observe and collaborate with other high-level musical organizations. Tours improve the organization’s relationship with other musical communities and expose our participants to new countries and cultures.
