El Marino Japanese Chorus was founded in the Fall of 2019 to give all students a fun and moving musical experience by singing together and achieving a goal together. Our goals are to cultivate the full potential within each child, introduce beautiful and fun Japanese songs, and build each student’s skills and confidence through encouraging and creative rehearsals and performances. It is an excellent opportunity to learn Japanese. No Japanese speaking ability necessary.
