Gainesville Youth Chorus

Established in 1994, the Gainesville Youth Chorus (GYC) is a not-for-profit, regionally based chorus for singers ages 7-18 that has become a children's international touring choir. Our mission is to create an atmosphere in which children can develop and advance their musical talent, demonstrate personal and artistic growth, experience true joy and passion for singing through choral performances, and serve as cultural ambassadors for Gainesville, Florida, USA. GYC has two principle performing groups; Concertina Choir and the Concert Choir. A much sought after choir, the Gainesville Youth Chorus performs 8-10 free concerts annually in Gainesville and the surrounding areas, as well as invitational performances with the University of Florida Symphony Orchestra and Choirs, benefit performances, and other community and regional events.
