Emerging Professional Artists programmeThe National Youth Choir exists to provide exciting and inclusive creative opportunities for all young people. Our Emerging Professional Artists programme, supports choral leaders and composers as they emerge into the professional world. It aims to address inequalities in the music industry by creating professional development pathways for those who are under-represented in choral music.
