RECENT REVIEWS & TESTIMONIALS OF THE INDIANAPOLIS CHILDREN’S CHOIR

FROM ICC SINGERS & PARENTS

“Of course I didn't realize this at the time, but ICC is one of the greatest things I've done so far in my life. It is so incredible being able to say, "Oh yeah, I've sung in Carnegie Hall. I've toured the Midwest, Hawaii, New York, and Ireland with some of my closest friends. I've sung songs in more languages than I can name in front of more people than I can count..." Along with teaching me how to sing well, how to get along with my peers, how to have stage presence without being distracting, ICC also taught me what true friendship and loyalty and commitment are. Seriously, a lot of what I experienced in ICC contributed to the woman I am today.” – Sophia Jacobs

RECENT REVIEWS & TESTIMONIALS

Hansel & Gretel, Clowes Memorial Hall, November 21 & 23, 2008
“....the children’s choir would have been missed in the final scene, where they broke into a joyous chorale, celebrating our siblings’ victory over the witch.  There they showed their vocal mettle, once again confirming their top-of-the-line reputation.”
Tom Aldridge, NUVO, Indianapolis, IN  11/26/08

Christmas with Sam Harris, Pike Performing Arts Center, November 29, 2008
"Through the years, I have performed dozens of Christmas concerts.  Occasionally, I work with a local children's choir.  I can honestly say that the Indianapolis Childrens Choir was top rate, the best of the best.  They were rehearsed and professional.  They were on time and enthusiastic.  They sounded amazing.  And mostly, they acheived all the above while remaining genuine and "unpolished".  I would welcome the chance to work with the Indianapolis Children's Choir anytime."  Sam Harris

Columbus Indiana Philharmonic Holiday Concert, December 7, 2008
“The two dangers of kid’s choirs are that either you don’t know what might occur – or they steal the show.......Together with the orchestra and adult chorus, it was a beautiful rendition of some beautiful pieces.....It’s also quite a trick to coordinate two conductors, choirs of different median ages and an orchestra in the back.  Bravi.”
Cary Boyce, The Republic, Columbus, IN  12/9/08

Evansville Philharmonic Peppermint Pops, December 6 & 7, 2008
“This is the sort of rhythm that a century ago would have given trouble to veteran musicians......but the children managed it so well, that I was able to enjoy myself, rather than sit on the edge of my chair in fear that the whole thing would fall apart.”
Dan Shaw, Courier & Press, Evansville, IN  12/7/08
