ICC Mitaka junior chorus

ICC stands for "Iguchi Chorus Circle".
It has been 17 years since it was established at Iguchi Elementary School in Mitaka City, Tokyo. We have been aiming to give performances that reach the hearts of the audiences at various competitions and concerts. Now, junior and senior high school students who graduated from the elementary school come to support them, sing with them, and teach them.
For the graduates as well, ICC has become an important treasure, as they grew up singing together in elementary school.
Recently, the repertoire has been composed of songs from "Nohara Uta(Field Sing-a-long)" written by Naoko Kudo and composed by Yuta Miyake. Each of us decided on our favorite "Nohara" character and deepened our understanding through plays and facial performance competitions. We hope that we can express the heart-warming world.
