SUMMARY:Family Pop-Up Choir
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a fun\, all-ages\, community singing experience where families\, neighbors\, and music-lovers come together to sing pop songs! \nA welcoming\, non-intimidating singing experience for families to come together and experience the magic of singing in a choir. Please be sure to get a ticket for each attendee in your group! \nThis program\, “Just the Way You Are\,” is inspired by Mister Rogers and his song “I Like You As You Are.” It features three short pop songs celebrating acceptance of ourselves and the people in our community — all learned in one hour. \n“True Colors” by Cyndi Lauper\n“Just the Way You Are” by Billy Joel\n“Just the Way You Are” by Bruno Mars\nNo prior singing experience is needed — just come ready to listen\, learn\, and have fun! \nHow It Works\nRather than being divided by age or voice type\, singers choose Part 1\, 2\, or 3 — each part can be sung in any octave\, so everyone can find what feels most comfortable. \nLearn a part in seconds at the event\, or choose a part to rehearse ahead of time with the practice tracks — a fun activity for the family! \nWe love to feature parents and their children in short solo moments throughout the program. Be sure to RSVP in advance to be notified when these opportunities become available. \nA Screen-Free Singing Experience\nInstead of staring at iPads or projectors\, everyone receives a simple lyric sheet (with optional sheet music) and learns the music together by ear — creating a more connected\, present\, and joyful experience. \n— \nHosted at Westrick Music Academy\nWestrick Music Academy (Home of the Princeton Girlchoir & Princeton Boychoir) empowers young singers through exceptional choral training\, meaningful performance opportunities\, and a vibrant\, supportive community. With ensembles for grades 1–12\, singers develop their voices\, confidence\, and love of music.
