Brooklyn Youth Chorus offers world-class voice training for young people, ages 5-18, with an emphasis on healthy vocal development, music literacy, and group performance. The Chorus also features multiple performing ensembles, known for delivering professional-level performances in a wide variety of settings, from concert halls to professional recording studios.

Running from September to June each year, the Chorus offers vocal instruction and private lessons for students across ten divisions, separated by age and experience level. Students are trained using the Cross-Choral Training® method, a proven holistic and experiential approach to teaching voice and musicianship in a group setting, designed by Founder & Artistic Director Dianne Berkun Menaker. It is a functional voice training based on voice science and health and a comprehensive approach to building sight-reading and music literacy skills.

Older students enrolled with the Chorus have the opportunity to participate in performing ensembles. The ensembles work on special projects throughout the year, including live appearances, professional recordings, and original choral productions.
