Violin (3)

Introducing an exciting new opportunity for young singers and musicians of the Turkish-American community!

Our Children’s Choir is growing into a new format with more opportunities to perform at national and social events this year!

Among the most important elements that bind every society together are music, choirs, and children. Choir  practices and performances unite American-Turkish children and their parents who accompany them with excitement.

We are excited to continue a musical tradition, grow our music program, and welcome young singers and high school leaders of our Turkish-American community. Give your child the gift of music! 🎻 Our kids' violin classes focus on fun, fundamentals, and  fostering love of music.
