 Susquehanna Valley
Youth Chorale
Building beautiful voices
one song at a time.
Greetings! Serving the region's young singers with artistic excellence, the Susquehanna Valley Youth Chorale(SVYC) has been an educational outreach of the Susquehanna Valley Chorale since 1993. Complementing existing school music programs, it gives talented young singers the opportunity to sing at an advanced level with other highly motivated singers from throughout the valley.
The Youth Chorale is comprised of these three performing ensembles:
- Preparatory Chorus (starting with 3rd/2nd grades fall/winter): This ensemble focuses on refining the basics of good choral singing. Members will learn music reading tools, t receive age appropriate vocal pedagogical guidance, and rehearse and perform with other young singers.
- Camerata Chorus (through 9th grade): The Camerata is designed for the young singer who enjoys a challenge. In addition to refining their music reading skills and vocal technique, singers will also explore choral literature that exposes them to intricate rhythms, foreign languages, and other cultures, all challenging them to become passionate singers.
- The Valley Singers (grades 9-12): Primarily an a cappella ensemble, the focal point of The Valley Singers is to provide the experience of performing with a refined small vocal ensemble. Literature performed will include Renaissance polyphony, choral arts songs, classic and modern vocal chamber music, as well as vocal jazz compositions. We are looking for young singers who have music skill, a passion for singing and who would like to make music with others similar to them. (Winter Session Only - Auditions, Dec. 3)
