What families say

“PEBCC means finding your voice. Our singers develop a deep love and appreciation for music and its power to lift the audience from daily living and into a moment in time or emotion, to tell stories, and to promote change.” — Chorister Parent Kelly Kirkpatrick

“Especially on point at every turn was the Ensemble of the Piedmont East Bay Children’s Choir. If they are not already on your radar, seek out their performances.” — SF Classical Voice, Aug 2019

“If we bring children together from distinctly different cultures, we can help them connect as real people to real people. We can sidestep social conditioning and create bridges of understanding that make it difficult to harbor ill will. These children have a genuine experience, beyond soundbites and newsflashes; they have joy.” — Robert Geary, Founding Artistic Director
