Our Youth Chorus is for teens and young adults who have a passion for singing, open to singers in middle school, high school and college. No choral experience necessary, but singers must be able to match pitch and have a desire to improve their vocal/music theory skills within a team environment. Each rehearsal includes advanced level vocal instruction working with music in a variety of genres, languages, keys, tempos and styles. A high volume of challenging and rewarding repertoire in 2-8 parts is learned and memorized each season. Music theory instruction is included (singers are invited to arrive at 6:30 for theory study and social time). Youth Chorus singers participate in annual Christmas and Spring Concerts, Youth Choir Festival NW and our week-long Honor Choir Camp in Aug. Many of our Youth Chorus graduates have gone on to major in music in college, become music teachers, section leaders and professional musicians.
