Our Choirs
Singing in Our Choirs
YWCP offers four levels of choirs—Prelude Chorus, Allegro Chorus, Vivo Chorus and the Young Women’s Chorus. Each choir level has its own curriculum and musical objectives. After vocal check, a singer gets an invitation to a chorus that is appropriate based on her age, vocal maturity and music reading ability.
Prelude Chorus
Allegro Chorus
Vivo Chorus
Young Women’s Chorus
All YWCP choirs teach young women substantial music and life skills. Through the study of music theory, individual and group vocal lessons, twice-per-week rehearsals, and 2 to 16 performances (depending on level) per year, each chorister learns self-discipline, focus, problem solving, responsibility, teamwork, stage presence, and confidence.
A singer is promoted to the next level chorus based upon her musical growth during the year. Acceptance into the highest level, the Young Women’s Chorus (YWC), requires a successful audition demonstrating a readiness for learning challenging repertoire and performing with advanced vocal skill and professionalism. YWC singers tour internationally and sing professionally with the SF Symphony, touring musicians, and performing arts organizations.
