Charlotte Youth Choir

Unleashing creativity, transforming lives, and building community through outstanding and accessible choir education.

About the Charlotte Youth Choir

For over 35 years, the Charlotte Youth Choir, has been growing young singers. Formerly the Charlotte Children’s Choir, CYC is made up of four ensembles for grades K-12. Singers rehearse every Monday and perform regularly throughout the Charlotte area.

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!

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!

How To Join CYC

If you are a new singer, please fill out our New Singer Form. We believe that everyone can sing, so no audition is required.

If you are a current singer, please register for your ensemble. You can register for one semester or save $85 by registering for the full school year.

For both new and returning singers, CYC offers a Sliding Scale Tuition Program that adjusts annual tuition according to family income. CYC and Arts+ are committed to providing an outstanding and accessible choir experience to any student who wishes to join. We also provide flexible payment plans, permitting families to break up tuition over the course of the school year.
