About MSACCC

The Mt. San Antonio College Children’s Choir (MSACCC) is a choral performance and music education program for youth, grades 1 - 10, who live in the nearby southern California area and wish to be part of an educationally focused choral ensemble.  The MSACCC provides children the experience of artistic choral singing and the opportunity to perform outstanding children and treble choir literature, while emphasizing the understanding and development of musical skills.

Singing skills and musical understanding are essential components of the creative process and are fundamental concepts of music education that will be taught to every singer.  High quality music from all styles and periods form the foundation for musical learning, and serve as the basis for this curriculum. The MSACCC repertoire will include music from the great composers of the past, as well as exciting new compositions.

Providing an opportunity to produce, practice and perform treble repertoire of many different styles.
