Meet CYC!

The Charlotte Youth Choir (CYC) continues to celebrate 35+ years of choral excellence. Formally the Charlotte Children’s Choir, CYC reflects the total student body makeup of the choir which spans kindergarten through twelfth grade. Renamed in 2021, CYC honors the significant growth and development of our performers' experience – in both talents and in life. Through the education of music and song, we continue to build a connected community and learn what it means to be excellent musicians and students. We are your Charlotte Youth Choir.

Who We Are

The Charlotte Youth Choir is first and foremost a family. Everything that we do is built on the foundation of caring deeply for each individual and encouraging them to be their best. Our singers are not a voice lost in a crowd - each singer is key to the success of the whole choir! We believe that building a community of singers should be our top priority. Through a committed and nurturing choir, each singer can be empowered to learn, grow, make beautiful music, and experience tremendous joy!

Our family is diverse. We’re bold. We’re achievers. We’re music lovers. We’re quirky. We’re confident together. We’re able to be ourselves without judgment. We’re encouragers. We’re supporters and cheerleaders for each other.

And as a family, we make incredible music. Through rehearsing and performing together, we learn to work together, see our voices grow, improve our music reading skills, and expand our understanding of the world. As a community, lives are changed -- our own lives as well as those that we touch through our music!
