PORTALES--Eastern New Mexico University will host the Eastern New Mexico Children’s Choir performance at noon on Friday, June 17, in Buchanan Hall in the Music Building on the Portales campus. The performance is the final result of a weeklong choir camp for children in third through eighth grade. The performance is free and open to the public.
Heather Vest, choir director, says that the main focus of the camp is to learn how to read music, learn a few songs and how to make beautiful choral sounds. “My plan is to have fun with these kids while being productive as a choir. These rehearsals are full of hard work and laughter,” says Vest.
Vest created the weeklong camp to offer the community a chance to see if the longer-term children’s choir offered in the fall would be a good fit for the children. This allows participants to sample the program without a long-term commitment.
