Introduce your child to music at Melbourne Youth Chorale, the City of Casey’s oldest community choir.
Whether or not your child shows love or talent for music, there’s a place for everyone in MYC’s warm social community.
Music is a universal language that enables people of all cultures and backgrounds to connect and make friends.
At MYC, you don’t need to be good at music before you start. There are no auditions and anyone can join.
The teachers are passionate about helping kids become the best they can, and it doesn’t matter where they start – they just learn and grow, and it’s really empowering for them to find that if they practice enough they can become better at something.
This is a skill that transfers into any aspect of life.
Joining MYC is worth doing; music benefits kids in so many ways.
Studies show that group music education helps with emotional regulation, mental and physical wellbeing, and social interaction, and helps kids become smarter in other school subjects.
MYC enables 6 to 20-year-olds to build lasting friendships, find their voice, and develop self-confidence.
Since every child should be able to access quality music education, MYC’s programs operate on a ‘donate what you can afford’ basis, so no one needs to worry about whether or not they can pay the fees.
Rehearsals are held in Hampton Park Secondary College on a Wednesday afternoon/evening. As well as choir groups, MYC provides a theory tutoring program, so participants learn the building blocks of music at their own pace in small groups.
The program caters for beginners through to VCE/university level.
There are performance opportunities throughout the year and these are a great opportunity to bring people of all ages together to enjoy music.
Even if kids are nervous about the idea of performances, they love being able to share what they’ve learned and bring joy to others.
