The Indianapolis Children’s Choir is thrilled to present its 2023-2024 concert season, A World Showcase. This season promises to transport audiences on a musical journey around the globe, celebrating the rich diversity of cultures through captivating choral performances. Pack your bags for a fun tour across these lands and cultures and travel along with us as singers share songs that transport our senses to Asia and the Pacific Islands, to Europe, across the USA, to Africa and the Middle East, and to Central and South America.

Our talented young singers will showcase their artistry and immerse listeners in the vibrant tapestry of global music. Join us for an unforgettable season of harmony, unity, and the transformative power of choral music from around the world.

As with any trip, you must return home at the end, and this Concert Season of exploration will lead us to celebrating the ICC’s new home at 9111 Allisonville Road. For the first time in the ICC’s history, we will have a home to call our very own.

We look forward to embarking on this expedition of music and new beginnings with you!

The ICC will transport audiences from Indianapolis to the bright fiery volcanoes of the South Pacific to the shaded tranquil gardens of East Asia during the first concert of the season. This region presents a balance of opposites in its geography, culture, and music. Sit back and relax as we embark on a breathtaking journey of reflection, celebration, and harmony, while discovering the captivating sounds of songs from India, China, the Pacific Islands, and more through the voices of our extraordinary young singers.
