FROM THE FOUNDER
At Bartell Music Academy, we don't just teach kids how to sing.
We help them become confident, capable musicians who aren't afraid to be seen and heard.
Too many kids quit music early, not because they lack talent, but because they never experience real progress or the confidence that comes from it.
Our choir isn't just about learning songs.
It's about being part of something, working toward a real performance, and stepping on stage with confidence.
Because when a child realizes, "I can do this," that belief carries far beyond music.
We have 30 spots in the Bartell Kids Choir Summer Season. If your child has ever wanted to perform, this is where it starts.
Warmly,
Patricia Bartell
Founder, Bartell Music Academy
More than Choir Practice
A confidence-building performance experience.
If your child loves to sing, perform, or simply needs something structured and fun to look forward to this summer, the Bartell Kids Choir is built for them. Every Monday at 4 PM, they'll rehearse with a group of kids their age, with Autumn Tucker, a choir director who knows exactly how to take a child from nervous beginner to confident performer.
This isn't casual. It's structured, encouraging, and designed so your child walks onto that outdoor stage on August 9th with genuine confidence, not just participation.
"Your child won't just sing in a choir. They'll become a performer."

Got Questions About The Bartell Kids Choir Summer Season?
What if my child is shy or has never sung in a group before?
That’s exactly who this choir is for. We specialize in helping shy kids feel safe, start small, and build confidence week by week in a fun, supportive setting.
Does my child need experience or “talent” to join?
No. We welcome all levels. Our job is to meet your child where they are and help them grow from there.
How long is each rehearsal and how often do you meet?
We meet once a week on Mondays at 6 PM for a 1-hour rehearsal. It's designed to fit into a busy family schedule while still giving your child meaningful progress each week.
Is $240 really worth it?
Yes. That's $20 per week for structured, coached rehearsals with a live outdoor performance built in. You can spread it out with 3 payments of $85 every 4 weeks, totaling $255. Or pay in full at $240 and save $15 plus receive bonuses worth $891, including a professional performance video, professional performance photo, and a personal MP3 recording of your child's final rehearsal.
My child isn’t very “musical.” Will they be able to keep up?
Absolutely. We use games, call‑and‑response, and simple harmonies to make music accessible and fun. The goal is confidence and joy, not perfection or competition.
What if my child loses interest during the season?
We keep rehearsals active and engaging, and the upcoming Fox performance plus new friendships give kids a strong reason to stick with it. And with our “first 2 rehearsals, risk‑free” guarantee, you’re protected if it truly isn’t a fit.
What happens after the Summer Season ends?
As a Bartell Kids Choir Member, your child gets early access to reserve their spot in the Holiday Choir Season before we open to the public. Most kids who complete summer will continue into fall. From there, the journey leads to our Spring Gala Concert.
What happens if my child has to miss a rehearsal?
Life happens. If your child needs to miss a week, they can use our digital practice tracks to review at home, and we’ll quickly catch them up at the next rehearsal. We just ask that you avoid missing the final rehearsals leading up to the Concert in the Park performance if possible.
