Get ready to make beautiful music this fall! The Ludington Youth Chorus is excited to announce the start of its inaugural semester-long choral program, led by the passionate and experienced Elliot Plummer. Students from Ludington and all surrounding areas, including Scottville, Manistee, Hart, and Pentwater, are warmly welcome to join!
A proud product of Ludington, Elliott brings a wealth of musical knowledge and a deep love for working with young people. Having grown up right here, attending O.J. DeJonge Middle School and Ludington High School, Elliott went on to earn his Bachelor's degree in Music Education (Vocal/Instrumental K-12) from Grand Valley State University. His musical journey began in middle school and blossomed through high school and college, where he actively participated in a wide array of musical ensembles, from bands and orchestras to choirs and musical theater.
"Music is one of the greatest gifts that humanity has been given," says Elliot, "and I can see no better way to spend my life than by sharing the gift of music with young developing musicians. I love working with young people, and I love helping them accomplish what they thought impossible for themselves. This is especially true when it comes to music!"
This exciting program offers a fantastic opportunity for young singers ages 10-14 from Ludington and neighboring communities to:
Develop their vocal skills in a fun and supportive environment.
Learn fundamental music concepts and build a strong foundation.
Explore a diverse range of musical styles.
Make new friends who share a love for singing.
Experience the joy of creating music together and perform in a public concert at the end of the semester.
Ludington Area Schools are generosity offering after-school transportation for students from Ludington Elementary and O.J. DeJonge Middle School directly to LACA for chorus rehearsals. This allows chorus students to have a snack before rehearsal begins at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday afternoons. Email Debby at the transportation office with your student’s name and days they will be riding to LACA:

The semester will run from September through December, with practices held once a week. The program fee is $200, which includes a LYC t-shirt and all sheet music. Join us as we build a strong community of young musicians and fill the semester with song!
