Founded in 1989, the Junior Amabile Singers (JAS) gives young treble singers between the ages of 10 – 14 an opportunity to develop an understanding of choral music, self-discipline, and artistic expression. Under the direction of Tammy Rees and Rebecca Lubos, the Junior Amabile Singers perform regularly in the London area and Southwestern Ontario in addition to seeking national and international performance opportunities.
