When we join together in song, we lift each other up!
Shiras Hayam Girls Choir is a 6 week long program that happens twice a year which brings together girls who have a passion for singing. All girls are welcome, no prior training or skills required!
At the end of each program, we shoot two professionally directed music videos, and then we have an awesome after party to celebrate everyone's huge accomplishment!
We have an incredible session planned! This session, we will be producing our third annual concert. Shiras Hayam is thrilled to announce that Chayala Neuhaus will be performing alongside our girls on the evening of June 18th at the Murphy Fine Arts Center. Chayala is an incredibly talented composer whose songs have been performed by many renowned artists. We are so excited to give our girls this amazing opportunity!
Please note that tickets for the concert will be sold in May and will start at $30. Additionally, we will be creating a concert recap video focused on the girls, which they will be able to enjoy for years to come.
There are 11 sessions total: 10 practices, 1 run-through practice at the theater, and concert day!
We can’t wait for another amazing session with our talented girls!.
FAQ
Is Shiras Hayam voice lessons?
The short answer is no. We do vocal exercises each class, but our main focus of choir, is the sound of the choir as a whole. The vocal cords are a muscle, by setting a time each week for singing, your daughters voice will improve by default. We learn: breathing techniques, emotion while singing, acting techniques for the music video, and how to successfully record in the studio.
How much does it cost?
Each 6 week session is 350$ per girl. Siblings each get a 15$ discount. You can pay in two payments if you prefer.
If you want to cancel before the second class, you will receive half back. After the second class, there are no refunds as spots are limited and competitive.
Does my daughter need to have a “good” voice to join Shiras Hayam?
No! In Shiras Hayam we believe in honing in on each girl's individual singing ability. We try our best to give each girl a chance to shine. Classes in Shiras Hayam are a lot of fun, and for everyone to enjoy!
What does the music video day look like?
We will be filming two music videos: an original song and a beautiful cover song. The original song will be a larger production, with most practices focusing on it, while the cover song will be a smaller, shorter production.
Each video is different and we send out information when we have it closer to the film day. We film for about 2-5 hours at our film location.
What does my daughter wear to the music video?
The girls will be receiving adorable custom Shiras Hayam costumes. In addition the girls will need a specific outfit.
Each video is different but we give a heads up so you can buy or borrow from a friend. Generally we pick something practical like a black knee length flairy skirt, black tights, a white shell, and white sneakers
Will my daughter get a solo in the video?
While we try our best to allow each girl to shine in the music video, due to the size of the choir and many other filming/editing factors it is impossible to have an equal amount of screen time for each girl.
