History

Katy Children's Choir, now called Katy Youth Choir to accommodate wider range of ages, was founded in 2012 by Dr. Debbie Siebert, to educate children and youth in the proper way of singing, expose them to rich varieties of music, as well as offer performance opportunities. KYC will not only benefit and add culture to the lives of those who participate, but it will also benefit their families and generations to come. Today more than ever, we are in need of wholesome quality music, and inspirational performance experiences. These influential types of musical experiences change and shape young lives for the better.

Since its formation in 2012, the Katy Children's Choir, now called Katy Youth Choir has performed at numerous local events and community celebrations. KYC also appeared in the community musical Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, as well as singing the National Anthem at Houston Rockets basketball games. Each year as the choir grows, we are able to inspire and engage more children, uplift listeners, and encourage music education that reaches many children, regardless of their circumstances. All children are accepted for placement in the choir.
