Our Mission
The mission of the FCCC is to provide children the opportunity to participate in a musical experience which is challenging, rewarding and enjoyable. Through the process of practicing and performing choral music with excellence and artistry, the FCCC helps to foster the personal, musical and social growth of each child, promoting self-esteem and self-discipline. The FCCC also contributes to the quality of the cultural life of its members and the community as a whole, performing standard children’s choir repertoire, masterpieces from throughout music history, new works and lesser known “little gems”.
The Fairfield County Children’s Choir is excited to release a virtual choir with children from 16 local towns singing, Simon & Garfunkel’s “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” The song holds a great message for these unsettled times and the video celebrates the power of children singing separately, but together.
Thank you FCCC choristers for joining us in our first virtual choir. Please share this post with family & friends, we hope this will spread joy wide and far.
We dedicate this video to all the front-line health care workers and first responders who have indeed been our “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” and to all the families that are suffering and have lost loved ones. Please consider a donation to COVID-19 Support Fund for Bridgeport Hospital in memory of Mary Avila, the beloved grandmother of FCCC conductor Jacqueline Sugrue-Tait.
