What conductors & choristers say about ACC
ACC is a unique experience, and an opportunity to use my talents to create a masterpiece, alongside like-minded Alberta youth. I attend ACC because it is a chance to expand my musical horizons and learn new techniques. I would recommend ACC for any young chorister.
—Aliya, Northern ACC Chorister (Northern Lights Harmonics, Lac La Biche)
I've been recommending my student's to the ACC for many years, as it is a great way for me as a teacher to give recognition to those student's in my choir who show dedication and commitment to singing and music making. Every year they come back so inspired by the entire experience. When asked, they always have plenty of stories about the guest conductor, the pieces the sang, or something new that they learned while there. I feel very fortunate as a teacher to have a program like this available for my students.
—Quan Le, Music Director, Calgary Girls' School
I was blown away by the performance and stunned by what [the guest conductor] Ruth managed to create with the choristers in such a short amount of time! I was moved to tears and cheers by the songs the choir sang!
