National Youth Choir – Do You Want To Join?

The National Youth Choir of Scotland (NYCOS) are excited to announce our upcoming Regional Choir Recruitment Workshops which will run across the country over the next few weeks. I would be so grateful if you could send the attached information to your parents/carers – particularly those in Primary 4 and Primary 5. If you could also please add it to your social media channels, we would really appreciate your support. I have attached the information both in picture format and PDF but please let me know if there is any further information you would like.  

As well as being fun, singing together in a choir has many benefits for children’s development and well-being. These include gaining music education, making friends and boosting confidence through performing. Singing also helps to develop literacy, concentration and memory.

Led by experienced music teachers and choir leaders, NYCOS Regional Choirs meet once a week during term time, where children learn and sing together with others their age. Entry is usually for singers in P4 every September, but we are always interested to hear from singers aged 8-17 who would like to join our regional choirs. With choirs in Aberdeen, Dundee, Inverness and Perth (among others), we hope there is a choir near enough for you to join. (Please note, Dundee booking has yet to open but please register your interest on the website to be notified of dates as soon as they are confirmed)
