La Jeunesse Registration Module 1

La Jeunesse Choirs is very excited to announce the structure of our choirs for the 2020-2021 season.

Starting in September 2020, La Jeunesse programming will be mostly online – we do have some exciting outdoor, physically distanced Music Theatre Intensive rehearsals planned while the weather is nice (more details below)! And while nothing can replace the experience of being together in person, the Artistic Team and the Board of Directors are pleased to present this thrilling alternative. The season will be divided into three 10-week themed modules; Fall (Evolution of Jazz!), Winter (Around the World in Ten Weeks!) and Spring (Comedy Tonight!). Each module will have a cohesive theme carried out throughout all of the performing groups, with a module-ending online performance.

Fall Module: Evolution of Jazz!

10 weeks (Starts September 2020)

From famous jazz standards of the swing era, to Brazilian Bossa Nova, through to contemporary genres like Rap and R&B, the choirs will welcome outstanding guests, including Juno Nominee for Outstanding Jazz Vocalist, Heather Bambrick, and will welcome back to La Jeunesse, after a 10-year hiatus, chart-topping jazz singer Shannon Butcher. Ensemble singing, vocal improvisation and beat boxing will take the singers on a journey through the 100-year history of this incredibly diverse musical genre. There will truly be something for everyone’s taste.
