Belonging, big stages, and brave voices with The St. Louis Children’s Choirs
This week on The STL Bucket List Show, Luke sits down with Ben Nordstrom (Executive Director) and Dr. Alyson Moore (Artistic Director) of the St. Louis Children’s Choirs, an iconic program that has been shaping young singers and leaders for 48 seasons.
They talk about how SLCC blends musical excellence with character growth, why belonging is at the heart of every rehearsal, and what happens when 400 kids from across the region step on stage at places like Powell Hall and Carnegie Hall.
