London Youth Choir is our senior mixed voice choir for young people from across London in school year 11 to age 23. Working across a wide-ranging repertoire encompassing many styles, cultures and languages, London Youth Choir members also receive musicianship training to improve their score-reading, listening and ensemble skills, and enjoy performance opportunities from recording sessions to arena concerts. The choir rehearses weekly during term time on Monday evenings and performs 4-6 times a year in various London venues such as Milton Court Concert Hall, Shoreditch Town Hall and St Paul's Cathedral.
London Youth Choirs (LYC) transforms young lives through singing. LYC’s aim is to combine musical excellence and social mobility: through our ten choirs and free programmes in schools, we help thousands of young Londoners each year access the joys and benefits of singing. We particularly work to improve pathways for disadvantaged young people, supporting them to find their unique voice and to thrive through music. Across all ten choirs, LYC works with more than 500 members aged 7-23 from all over London each week. Our ‘LYC Experience’ programme partners with schools and Music Hubs. LYC performs regularly in venues across London. Recent performance highlights include Britten’s War Requiem with The Bach Choir; Handel’s Messiah in our BBC Proms debut; and performing a new Andrew Lloyd-Webber commission at the D-Day 80 Commemorations (at the British Normandy memorial), broadcast by the BBC to a world-wide audience of millions.
