What do Barack Obama, George H.W. Bush, Kristin Chenoweth, Brad Pit, Anne Hathaway, Danika Patrick, Andy Pettitte, Kelly Clarkson and Usher have in common? Yes! They all sang in choirs. Successful people learn skills in choir empowering them for the future. Singers will build self-esteem, peer leadership, collaboration, teamwork, perseverance and fundamental to WYC - a social conscience.
WYC also offers the stage for soloists to develop their talents. Each concert has many opportunities for beginners to try out their talents as well as featured solos for more advanced singers. Our fall Debut Concert debuts both the choirs and our more advanced soloists in their choice songs from any style. WYC is non-religious and welcomes singers of any race, color, national or ethnic origin, religious affiliation and gender identification. The 2019-2020 Season will run September 2019 through May 2020. See the Join Us page. |
