Children's choir getting underway in Sisters

If you have a daughter or a son who is between the ages of 5 and 10, and wish he or he knew more about music, and/or could actually sing or play a musical instrument, call Lola Knox.

She will sign up your daughter or son with her Sisters Children's Choir.

Knox will teach your child music, and to sing. If you want to give your child the opportunity to really get involved with music, she can also teach piano, stringed instruments, percussion, and woodwinds.

The Sisters Children's Choir has sung with the Sisters High Desert Choir several years running, and knocked the audience out of their seats every time. Those who have heard her kids sing have stood next to their moms and dads, clapping with tears of joy on their faces.

This year, Knox is doing a lot of music from the "Peter Pan" era, because, as she put it, she and Peter Pan are the same age (and knowing Lola, they share some personality traits). She will also be doing music from "Annie."

"Of Peter Pan, we'll even modernize things by adding a rap version of, 'I Won't Grow Up,' and 'You're Never Fully Dressed Without A Smile,'" she said.

The choir meets every Monday afternoon from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. at Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church at 386 N. Fir St. in Sisters. If you want your child to join in the fun give Lola Knox a call at 541-390-4615, or send her an email: [email protected]
