Saskatchewan Youth Choir (SYC) is an exciting opportunity for talented youth ages 16 - 22 to perform in an SATB balanced choir with likeminded singers from across Saskatchewan.  The program develops singers ready to participate in premier vocal ensembles across Canada. Singers will be eligible to represent Saskatchewan as part of the National Youth Choir of Canada and as part of other, provincially-sponsored choral projects.

As part of their training, singers will prepare a varied program of exciting repertoire designed to enthrall audiences of all ages at a final concert.

For the 2025 season the Saskatchewan Youth Choir will be under the direction of guest conductor, Laura Hawley, with rehearsal conductor  Stacy Allan. The guest conductor will choose the repertoire for the season and lead the choir for the final weekend and performances, with the rehearsal conductor leading the first two rehearsal weekends.
