Today Trecek-King, 36, is the artistic director of the Boston Children’s Chorus, an innovative arts education organization that uses music as a catalyst for social change as it unites children ages 7-18 across diverse socioeconomic, racial and religious backgrounds. The chorus, which began with a handful of children in a pilot training program, serves nearly 500 singers in 12 choirs in five Boston locations. “I’m sharing my love for music with a new generation of musicians. Music changed my life – why not provide that opportunity for other people?” said Trecek-King, who said that underserved, low-income youth often need help finding their voices, not just on the stage, but also in their lives.
