Welcome

	* The Eastside Girls Choir and Youth Ensemble is a local, entertainment based chorus for young singers ages 5 to 18. Established in 1995, EGC is a division of Theater Arts Education Foundation; a non-profit organization. The choirs perform in professionally produced concerts several times during the year as well as sing for community events, the national anthem at sporting events and do recording projects (in December of 1998 they recorded their first CD that included original compositions). In concert they perform with professional singers as guest artists for inspiration and professional performing experience. Members come from several public and private schools throughout the Puget sound area. Some choir members perform in local theatrical productions and as soloists at various events and churches. 
 	
	 * In this choir you will learn musicianship, correct vocal production, professional stage and performance skills, choreography and self confidence.

            * Being a member of a chorus is a valuable experience where one learns teamwork, dedication, and discipline, while having fun. 

	* Choosing the right activity is crucial to ensure a lifelong love of music.

	* The associations your children make now could last a  lifetime.
