The Youth Singers program has grown from twenty-eight junior high school students to over five hundred and fifty strong. Participants develop their skills in a challenging and comprehensive regimen of rehearsals, workshops and performances.

Youth Singers instructors teach using ensemble methods to encourage cooperation and teamwork in teams consisting of a Music Director, Choreographer and Accompanist. Performers learn not only through participation in ensemble work and interdivision work, but also through observing the successful collaboration of the artistic team. All Youth Singers instructors have outstanding credentials and education in music, theatre and dance.

Youth Singers programs help to foster personal and creative growth in a structured and supportive environment. Young people are given a forum for creative and emotional expression, while improving reading skills, concentration, discipline, teamwork, self-esteem and public speaking ability. Young adults have an outlet for creative expression, honing their performance and leadership skills. Because of their dedication to these ideals, Youth Singers alumni frequently credit the program with setting the course for their further education and career choices.
