Magnolia Youth Choir
About Magnolia Youth Choir
Join our warm, welcoming community of young singers!
Magnolia Youth Choir (MYC) is a fun, welcoming community where young singers learn to use their voices with confidence and joy. Through playful warm-ups, rounds, and songs kids actually love (think Taylor Swift, The Beatles, Rihanna, and Big Thief), we build musical skills naturally — all by ear. No prior experience or sheet music reading required.
Rehearsals focus on:
Healthy vocal foundations + harmony-building
Listening, blending, and expressive performance
Movement and fun
Optional solos and small ensemble moments
Our teen assistants help model a love for singing at every class.

Audition-only teen ensemble for experienced singers ready to take their musicianship to the next level. We explore blend, harmony, and stage presence through folk-pop and indie repertoire (Phoebe Bridgers, Big Thief, Lucius, etc.) in an intimate, collaborative group.
Skylarks is designed for experienced singers who are ready to explore harmony singing in a supportive ensemble. Some experience singing harmonies is helpful, but curiosity, careful listening, and a willingness to learn are just as important.

Testimonials
“Our daughters love MYC! Kat chooses music they are excited to sing! She creates a joyful learning environment where they feel comfortable to stretch and take risks as singers and performers. The end of semester shows are beautiful and fun for the whole family. We all adore Kat and highly recommend Magnolia Youth Choir!”
“My daughter is involved in so many activities (choir, dance, soccer, swim, and soon to be softball)— I asked her last week what her favorite is and she said CHOIR! You have created such an awesome community for these kids, thank you!”
