Greater Richmond Children's Choir  (GRCC)

Grace and Holy Trinity Church is home base for the Greater Richmond Children's Choir.  This Choir is dedicated to bringing together boys and girls from diverse backgrounds to experience the joy of singing and to gain a life-long love for good music through age-appropriate vocal training. The GRCC strives to nurture the unique gift each child brings, to encourage all to reach for excellence, and ultimately, to create responsible and compassionate citizens of the world. Founding Artistic Director Hope Armstrong Erb has been proclaimed “a wonder” in her ability to maintain a high standard in both performance and teaching. Now in its fifteenth season, GRCC includes 65 choristers, ages 8-18 in five ensembles representing over 35 different schools in the city of Richmond and the surrounding counties. GRCC is a non-profit corporation providing need-based scholarships to over 30% of the children, and rehearses weekly at Grace & Holy Trinity Episcopal Church.  You can visit their web site at: http://www.grcchoir.org/
