“I was a member of the chorus from 1986 through 1991.
The group gave me many close friendships which have lasted to this day.”

– R. Brady

“I’m an alumni and OYC shaped me and prepared me for my music career that lay ahead!”

– S. Becker

There’s something about singing that’s impossible to describe – the raw
vulnerability of offering your voice and your artistry to an audience, a power that is both painful and beautiful at the same time. Through OYC, I have learned to be confident and to act with purpose in all areas of my life.

– Eleanor, class of 2020

“As a lifelong musician and music educator with experience in arts administration, I have seen organizations of this type from many sides, and I’ve never seen an organization quite like OYC.”

– Lara B.
