About Us

In the fall of 2012, the Girls Choir of Springfield, formerly the Springfield-Drury Girls Choir (SDGC), was founded to unite the young women of Springfield in song, and strengthen the ties between Drury’s Department of Music and the community. Seeking to operate on a greater level throughout the Springfield community, the organization decided to change its name in the fall of 2018 to reflect its new mission of service through song in the Springfield community. Thus, the Girls Choir of Springfield was born.
Currently there are two choirs within the organization: the Songbirds (2nd through 4th grades) under the direction of Molly Faulkner, and the Girls Choir of Springfield (5th through 8th grades) under the direction of Alicia Lyons. The choirs are open to any girl in grades 2-8 by audition. The choirs have performed for the Missouri Music Educators Association Convention, at the St. Louis Cardinals, with the Springfield Symphony, and at numerous other local engagements in addition to their annual concert series. In addition to employing some of the finest conductors and accompanists in the region, GCS provides internship opportunities for music education students. For more information, or to schedule an audition, please contact girlschoirofspringfield@gmail.com. |
