National Youth Choir of Scotland

National Youth Choir of Scotland

The National Youth Choir of Scotland is an outstanding choir for young people aged 16 to 25, led by world-renowned conductor Christopher Bell. Membership is granted by yearly auditions to singers born, resident or studying in Scotland. In 2012 the choir was presented with the Royal Philharmonic Society’s Ensemble Award.

During Scotland’s Year of Young People in 2018, the choir was in residency at the Edinburgh International Festival for which the singers were awarded a Herald Angel Award for their performance at the Opening Concert in Haydn The Creation followed by their own sell-out a capella concert in the Usher Hall conducted by Christopher Bell. The choir then travelled to New York to perform Berlioz Lélio with the Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique and its conductor, Sir John Eliot Gardiner, in Carnegie Hall. The following year the National Youth Choir of Scotland performed Berlioz Lélio at the Philharmonie de Paris, this time with Les Siècles and its conductor, François-Xavier Roth. The choir also performed at the twentieth anniversary of the first sitting of the Scottish Parliament.

Other celebrated performances include appearances with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, Scottish Chamber Orchestra, Royal Scottish National Orchestra and Public Service Broadcasting, and at events including Edinburgh International Festival, XX Commonwealth Games Opening Ceremony, BBC Passchendaele Centenary Commemorations, BBC Proms, Festival Berlioz, Grant Park Music Festival and Grand Teton Music Festival.
