A project of the Nova Scotia Choral Federation, the Nova Scotia Youth Choir is celebrating its 20th anniversary year The objective of the choir is to provide talented singers aged 16 to 25 with a challenging opportunity to work, develop and perform choral music together. Auditions for the Nova Scotia Youth Choir of 2010 will be available in Digby, Halifax, Liverpool, New Glasgow, Sydney, Truro and Wolfville and will take place in February (see brochure for more details). From these auditions, 30 to 40 singers will be chosen to work with a team of fine musicians including resident conductors Christopher Bowman and Monica George Punke. Guest conductor, Diane Loomer, will head up the team making this an exceptional learning opportunity.

Voice quality, presentation and total balance of choral sound are taken into consideration during participant selection. Choristers will work with the two resident conductors during three rehearsal weekends held between June and September. Final rehearsal sessions will be led by the guest conductor and will culminate in performances on October 2 and 3, 2010.

A limited number of bursaries are now available Nova Scotia youth Choir Singers through the generous assistance of the Halifax Camerata Singers.  for more information please visit www.halifaxcamerata.org .
