Mixed Childrens Chorus

Based in Bangor, ME

The Bangor Area Youth Choir is a two choir organization. The Treble Choir is a training choir comprised of singers turning 9 during the academic year through age 16. The Youth Chorale is auditioned from the Treble Choir, changed male voices, or at the discretion of the director. Youth Chorale members will be no older than 19 years of age during the academic year.

One of the important features about BAYC is that it is set up to be a long-term activity and experience that grows and deepens throughout the years of the singer's involvement. We know that college admissions offices look at extracurricular activities - and we also know that what really matters to them is not the number of activities, but, rather, consistent involvement in a limited number over a period of years. The staff and board of BAYC work hard to have our organization be one that gradually and consistently builds musical expertise, character, poise, sensitivity and understanding of other cultures and eras, friendships with singers from a wide variety of backgrounds and locales, and leadership skills. BAYC is an organization that teaches young people how to sing better...but it is much, much more than that!
