Voice Placements

The Cabrillo Youth Chorus is designed for children from 8 to 18 years of age. 

For the 2025-2026 season

  • Tuesday is for students of all ability levels. Skills include singing in unison and two-parts, developing a healthy singing tone, and fostering basic musicianship. Students regularly perform in Samper Recital Hall and may have some opportunities to perform off campus. 

​

  • Wednesday is for students with prior singing experience. Skills include increasing part independence, developing age-appropriate tone, and cultivating independent musicianship. Students regularly perform in Samper Recital Hall, are expected to attend performances off campus, and frequently share the stage with the Cabrillo College Choirs.
