The NYCGB vision is to be the most inspirational and innovative organisation for young singers in the UK.
They create exceptional performance opportunities and provide inspirational teaching and guidance, and enthuse young people from all backgrounds in the joy of singing.
Youth Choirs provide opportunities for children aged 9 to 22, with a Chamber Choir for young professionals and those studying to become professional singers up to age 25.
They meet twice each year for residential courses and encourage regular choral singing during the rest of the year.
