The Memphis Area Youth Chorus is the choir affiliated with Beacon Hill Homeschool Community. The choir meets immediately after cooperative. Cooperative participation is NOT required for choir participation. We practice weekly, with one practice per month replaced by a nursing home performance. We collaborate with a local hospice organization, rotating through different area nursing homes. We also have a few other performances throughout the year. Our choir sings a mix of secular and Christian songs.
The choir is led by Maria Rees and Kaitlyn Brady. Maria received her bachelor's degree in piano performance from Brigham Young University and participated in various choirs during her secondary and collegiate education. Both Kaitlyn and Maria have been piano teachers for many years and have held numerous positions of musical service at church, including children's choir director and organist.
