What is the European Youth Choir?

The European Youth Choir is the continuation of EuroChoir which started more than 40 years ago as a project of AGEC and became an activity of the European Choral Association after the merger in 2011. It aims to promote cultural exchange through high-level music making with internationally acclaimed conductors. For over four decades, the EuroChoir has allowed singers to build a truly international network of choral friends, sharing their passion and dedication. Of course, the music comes first, with exciting (and sometimes demanding) programme to rehearse and perform in a short time frame.

Get ready for the next session which will take place on 16-17 July 2025 in Valencia ✨ Read more here and below!

Celebrate Europe through choral singing – EuroChoir was a unique choral event organised by the European Choral Association every year in a different country. Initiated by AGEC in 1982, EuroChoir offered the opportunity to young singers to get together for 8 days, improve their vocal skills and present the results of their work in public concerts. This special choir project aimed to promote European choral music among young singers and to encourage cultural exchange within Europe.
