Learn a harmony part at home, then join a room full of voices in a candlelit performance of a Elton John medley with a live band.
The ChoralPop Elton John medley features "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road," "Tiny Dancer," "Rocketman," and "Crocodile Rock" with a live band featuring piano, violin, guitar, bass, and percussion.
Arrangement preview coming soon!
Designed for singers of all experience levels, this unique community music experience combines the joy of choir with the convenience of at-home preparation. When you register, you'll receive a harmony assignment and a vocal practice video that makes learning your part approachable and fun. Then we'll come together for a live rehearsal, recorded performance, and a memorable evening of music.
No choir experience required. Memorization is encouraged, but not required.
We love capturing the energy of our choirs! Photos and videos are taken during events and may be used for promotional purposes.
