Pembina Valley Youth Chorus
Starting Fall 2026
Erin Klassen, director
Erin Klassen, BFA (music), studied piano under Judy Kehler Siebert and Carole Pollard, and voice under James Fast. A former Music Director at Mennonite Collegiate Institute, director of Home School Harmony Choir, and a Vocal director for over 20 youth and community musicals in the Pembina Valley area (and counting!), she has extensive vocal ensemble teaching and directing experience. Erin has maintained a private studio of piano and voice students on and off over the last 25 years.
For students who don’t have access to a school choir, or for keen choristers looking for additional choral experiences. Because of our short season, strong music reading skills are an asset (but not a requirement). We will explore a variety of choral styles while developing ensemble singing skills - and having fun together! Each season will culminate in a concert with other DKSM ensembles.
