Jasper Young Singers is a community based chorus that serves Pickens County.
Girls and Boys from age 8 through high school are accepted into the program. Our audition is very low key and used to place the singer in the proper learning situation. We train singers! Our students come from Pickens County public, private, and home schools.  Rehearsals are at the Creative and Performing Arts Academy, 95 Whitfield Dr, Suite A, Jasper GA, (next to the Bargain Barn.)

The chorus meets for rehearsals on Mondays when public schools are in session from 4:30 to 6:00.  Singers are separated into age groups and work in 45-minute session,performance repertoire with Bay Cagle   ANDmusic reading and solo singing technique with Suzanne Shull.  Both instructors have degrees and experience in choral music education in the state of Georgia.

Singers learn a variety of literature: sacred, folk, pop, and Broadway.  They learn how to read standard music notation and are encouraged to develop their solo voices.  Our goal is to help the members become confident singers and be prepared for performance opportunities that come their way.

Jasper Young Singers has performed for various events and in a number of churches around Jasper since 2006.  The organization is affiliated with Atlanta Young Singers, sharing educational materials, and occasionally the same stage.

Tuition is $200 a year, payable as negotiated with the administrator. We also have scholarships.

Calendar updates coming soon!
