Early Youth!

For those youth in Grades 4-8, the Ministry of Music has two offerings: the WESLEY BOY CHOIR and the JUBILATION SINGERS. The Wesley Boy choir tradition at Boise FUMC started in the 1960's under the direction of David Wehr; the Jubilation Singers is an all-girl ensemble with a long-standing tradition of excellence. Both choirs sing for worship and for CATC. Both ensembles embark on a mystery tour each spring.

For decades, young men and women in Grades 9-12 have the privilege of being involved in one of Boise's best youth choirs. Youth from across the Treasure Valley seek out the EPWORTH CHORALE in order to hone their musical skills while carving friendships that last a lifetime. The Epworth Chorale has the honor of being the resident choir at 9:00am worship throughout the school year, is a fixture at CATC, and takes a mission tour each June.

For those young people in the Epworth Chorale in the mood for a second helping of choral music, REFLECTIONS is an ensemble just for them. Auditions take place in early September; involvement in the Epworth Chorale is a requirement for placement. Reflections sings monthly in worship, at civic events, at CATC, and tours annually each June.

The Cathedral is fortunate to have senior high youth with a variety of musical talent that includes percussion, keyboard, guitar, and other instrument skills. In 2003, it became apparent that XPRESSIONS, our resident youth band needed to be born. From soft ballades to hard rock, these youth cover a wide variety of contemporary literature.
