Choruses
YMC has three choruses, tailored to age and level of challenge desired:
musicus: one who plays or sings music — musician
musicum: pl. musicus
April 21: Article just published on our adapting as a pandemic-era chorus!
June 16: Composer commented on our performance of his piece!
Rehearsals start Sept. 11!
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!
See our kids' determination, passion, and skill in three FULL pandemic concerts:
The Storm Is Passing Over
Bartók to Bohemian Rhapsody!!!
and
Away From the Roll of the Sea

Due to the pandemic
masks will be required
YMC will provide singers' masks (much more breathing room and they don't impede the vocal mechanism) to singers who sign up by the time we've ordered them. (If this message is still up, we haven't ordered them yet.)
