Choral Ensembles

Connecticut Children's Chorus

Connecticut Children’s Chorus (CCC) unites the youth of greater Hartford through our unparalleled choral training program. We create life-changing musical experiences for highly passionate and skilled young musicians in a supportive, community-centered environment where students’ enthusiasm and love for music is nurtured. Our singers transcend social barriers, make meaningful connections, and build important life skills while celebrating global awareness. 

CCC has offered comprehensive choral education to young singers since it was founded in 1991. Through a variety of musical experiences guided by dedicated, accomplished directors, choir members have the opportunity to:

  • Develop comprehensive musicianship skills including reading music notation, healthy vocal production, ear training, movement, and musical interpretation
  • Engage in music making through a rich repertoire of choral music from different time periods and different cultures
  • Perform with professional musical organizations such as the Hartford Symphony, the Hartford Chorale, the New Haven Chorale, the Hartt Symphony, the New Britain Symphony, CONCORA and other outstanding musical groups and artists
  • Develop self-esteem and a sense of musical accomplishment
  • Interact with other passionate and skilled peers from different towns in the Hartford area
  • Work with professional composers and guest directors
