Choruses
YMC has three choruses, tailored to age and level of challenge desired:
musicus: one who plays or sings music — musician
musicum: pl. musicus
Every YMC concert ends with a "Big Sing" in which all the groups participate, enabling the younger kids to experience the possibility of something bigger, and enabling the older kids to experience the joy of mentorship and the affection that comes with now being on the supportive end of the endeavour.
Our members are truly engaged, which makes for a fun, highly effective rehearsal. Photo credit: G. Biddle?
We create and cater to young musicians!
Come see what happens when fun and sophistication combine! From kids just learning to sing, to those supporting our vocal endeavors with jaw-dropping instrumentals, we enjoy and develop the skills each singer brings to our choral ensembles.
This is a chorus for those who take an intrinsic delight in music. If your son or daughter would like a high-quality, serious choral experience in a joyful, not-so-serious atmosphere, we welcome them!
The proof is in the pudding!

Masks are required
Everyone must wear a mask.*
YMC will provide singer's masks to our musicians on the first day.
Seating thus far has been socially distanced. Those who wish to have sat even further away.
Windows and doors will be open for continuous air exchange, so bring a jacket in case it gets cold.
Let us joyously raise our voices together in song!
*except for the quadruple-vaccinated director, so as to facilitate conducting communication. Director will test before every rehearsal.
