2019 Reading Session Picks: Children's Choir
Looking for new anthem ideas for your choir? You’ve come to the right place.
This month, I’m sharing my top “Reading Session Picks” for church choirs (see my 18 anthem recommendations for Adult Choir + more to come).
Today, I’m sharing 10 new anthems for children's choirs (my favorites from all the ones I reviewed!).
The anthems on this list include opportunities for developing part-singing within your choir and adding in other instruments: handbells or handchimes and hand drum. I’ve said it before, but adding instruments to your choir anthems is a great way to develop musical independence, help develop your choir’s listening skills, and create a memorable and meaningful worship experience for all involved.
I know that not every piece on this list will work for your choir, but I hope you find at least one anthem you love.
