About ETCC and EVCC

Under the direction of Jane DeLoach Morison, the East Tennessee Children’s Choir (ETCC) and Emory Virginia Children’s Choir (EVCC) provide children in grades 4 and up with a quality education in music and healthy vocal technique. The choirs are dedicated to singing high quality choral repertoire from throughout history and around the globe.
