Bach Festival Youth Choir

Youth Choir December 2023

The Bach Festival Youth Choir was established in 1992 and experienced a 3 year hiatus due to the pandemic. The triumphant return of the Bach Festival Youth Choir occurred in the fall of 2023 where they were invited to sing with legendary Diana Ross in Steinmetz Hall. Theire season also included collaborations with the Bach Choir and Orchestra for McCartney’s Ecce Cor Meum and the nationally televised program, A Classic Chrismas.

Students who love to sing and have a strong desire to learn and grow musically are accepted regardless of experience.

Our Youth Choir program features two ensembles:

  • Youth Choir (Grades 6-12)

  • Children’s Choir (Elementary)

Tuition Costs:

  • Youth Choir $150 per semester

  • Children’s Choir $100 per semester

*Scholarships are available. Must apply prior to the first rehearsal. Email Sondra Jones for more info.
