The Lawrence Children's Choir was founded in the fall of 1991 by Janeal Crabb Krehbiel and her sister Marilyn Crabb Epp. The original choir consisted of 40 singers from 4th - 8th grade and was supported by the Lawrence Arts Center for the first two years. In September of 1993 the choir incorporated as a not-for-profit organization. Since then, LCC has further refined its repertoire and attracted national attention.
The Lawrence Children's Choir includes the Tour Choir (5th through 9th grade), membership held by audition each spring. Choristers (3rd through 6th grade) welcomes all singers who have the ability to match pitch. Cadenza (1st through 3rd grade) is a choir open to all children who enjoy singing.
Capo is LCC's newest addition, serving local children ages 3 through 5.
LCC presently serves more than 150 children, ages preschooler through 9th grade.

Review: "Here's To Song" is The Lawrence Children's Choir's second CD, once again directed by founder Janeal Krehbiel and accompanied by co-founder Marilyn Epp. There are 30 songs here, all but a couple are accompanied by piano or piano and clarinet or oboe. The 70-voice choir takes more chances on their second CD, in the form of more solos and more adventuresome arrangements. The song selection continues to be all over the map, from Gabriel Faure's "Pie Jesu from Requiem Mass" to Joan Varner's wonderful "When I Am Silent." These kids don't hold anything back, and can hit the high notes with ease and skill. Here's to the children, Ms. Krehbiel , Ms. Epp, and To Song!
