Join the mixed voices of National Youth Choir (9-15 Years) for a performance celebrating identity, community and the power of young voices. 

At the centre of this concert is a new piece written by composer Jim Papoulis in collaboration with these young singers called ‘We Belong’. Inspired by the young performers’ own words, ideas, and experiences, the music will explore how it feels to navigate belonging, connection and hope as a young person in today’s world.  

Through expressive music and powerful storytelling, this concert invites audiences to reflect on their own sense of belonging and experience the strength and beauty of many voices coming together as one.
