The Cantabile Festival for Young Voices is a non-competitive event aimed at nurturing the art of choral singing among young people through collaboration; the Festival is a celebration of community music making. Participation offers young singers several excellent musical and educational opportunities:

 

• Join singers from Cantabile and local school and community choirs for a day of learning, rehearsing and performing.

• Work with an internationally-renowned guest conductor.

• Perform in a wonderful community concert as a part of the Festival Combined Chorus.

 

Festival participation is free for all invited choirs. The event is supported by Cantabile Youth Singers of Silicon Valley as part of our annual operating budget that is supplemented with the help of local foundations like Silicon Valley Creates, the Los Altos Community Foundation, and the Ann and Gordon Getty Foundation so that we can share the rich gift of choral music by giving back to our local community.

 

For each festival, we bring a prominent and inspiring choral clinician to share their unique talents and expertise in a full morning of rehearsals and workshops and to conduct the afternoon concert.
