Miami Children’s Chorus Timothy A. Sharp, Director Alan G. Ngim, Principal Accompanist Analy Mendez, Artistic Administrator
Established in 1965, the award-winning Miami Children’s Chorus (MCC) offers the children of Miami-Dade County the opportunity to study and perform standard and experimental forms of choral music. Through this study the children learn musicianship, vocal technique, discipline, commitment, and the rewards of sustained and dedicated effort. In weekly rehearsals the children also learn that there is no greater result than giving their personal best. MCC can be heard singing background on recordings of Raul di Blasio, Gloria Estefan, Christian Castro, and the Frost Chorale. They appeared with Queen Latifah as part of the pre-game show for Super Bowl XXIV in 2010 and perform regularly throughout South Florida, partnering with many organizations including the Florida Grand Opera. The group has toured nationally and internationally, performing in Argentina, Austria, Brazil, Czech Republic, Italy, the United Kingdom, and throughout the United States, including New York’s Carnegie Hall.
