The National Youth Choirs of Great Britain is holding two days of auditions this May for boy trebles in school years 5 and upwards (upper limit is school year 10) to join for the summer holiday course and hopefully beyond.
A great opportunity for young singers to gain outstanding musical experiences and meet like-minded people in their holidays, especially for older trebles who know they will want to continue singing through voice change. Everyone has a voice assessment at the start of each course, and those whose treble days are over can move into Cambiata Voices (on the same course) when their voice is ready.

Bursaries are available for any candidate should costs of travelling to the audition, or the audition fee, be otherwise prohibitive. Bursaries are also available for courses and other associated costs, such as uniforms.
The summer course for the NYCGB Boys' Choir and Cambiata Voices runs from Tuesday 12-Saturday 16 August. The course will be held in Tonbridge School, Kent, and the concert is at Cambridge Corn Exchange on Saturday
16 August.
