Each year, the Indianapolis Children’s Choir (ICC) serves more than 2,500 young people between the ages of 18 months and 18 years who are enrolled in the ICC’s choirs and music education programs. Founded in 1986 by Henry Leck, and under the leadership of Executive Artistic Director Joshua Pedde, the ICC nurtures and inspires student achievement through quality music education and the pursuit of artistic excellence in choral music performance. Now located at the ICC Performing Arts Center in Indianapolis, participants in the ICC’s programs represent the diversity of central Indiana with children from nearly 20 counties, including all of the Indianapolis area suburbs and nearby rural communities. These children come from more than 360 schools and 56 school districts. Each week, the ICC holds 110 rehearsals and music classes.
