Founded in 2013 by Artistic Director Carrie Tennant, the award-winning Vancouver Youth Choir provides a space for promising young singers ages 5-24 to develop their artistry in a creative and supportive environment. In ten years, the organization has grown to more than 400 members aged 5-24 in seven separate ensembles, including the brand-new “VYC Kindred” – a free choral program where newcomer and refugee youth learn about Indigenous music and culture.

In a little over a decade, VYC has emerged as one of Canada’s most dynamic youth arts organizations, earning international recognition for its adventurous programming and innovative performances. Beyond their consistently sold-out season concerts, VYC frequently collaborates with solo artists and creators from diverse disciplines.

As it enters its second decade, the Vancouver Youth Choir continues to inspire and elevate the world of choral music, setting new standards for youth choir ensembles globally.
