Youth Choir
We would love to have some more boys (or young men) in our Youth Choir. We know it`s not "American Idol" but it`s a chance to sing for an even more important "judge". Also, some of you have noticed that we are changing our music to sound more Byzantine. If you would like a complimentary CD of our new liturgy please see me, Tony Vatousios. You may also listen and download our entire liturgy online at www.stvasilios.org > Youth Choir or www. hrmsmusic.com/st_vals_welcome.htm
