Southlake Children's Choir

Our Mission

Southlake Children's Choir promises to provide a premier choral experience for children and audiences throughout Northwest Indiana. We will live up to this promise by performing quality literature with excellence, providing age appropriate voice training for treble singers, helping children build confidence and poise through performance, and inspiring a lifetime of musical involvement.

Founded in 1984, Southlake Children's Choir is a non-profit choral ensemble dedicated to offering a quality musical experience to children ages seven through fourteen in Porter and Lake Counties. The choir is made up of three performing ensembles, two of which rehearse in Lake County and one in Porter County. The Apprentice Choir (Crown Point) is for young singers in grades 2-5, and the Concert Choir (Crown Point) has members in grades 5-9. The Treble Choir (Valparaiso) consists of singers in elementary and middle school.

An audition is required for membership. For more information or to schedule an audition, please call 1-866-662-1151 (toll-free). Our season runs from September through May, and we hold auditions by appointment from May through August.
