ABOUT BROOKLYN YOUTH CHORUS
The sheer beauty of their singing was captivating The New York Times

Brooklyn Youth Chorus is a Grammy Award-winning collective of young voices led by visionary Founder & Artistic Director Dianne Berkun Menaker. A polished ensemble of miniature professionals (The New York Times), the versatile Chorus fluently delivers world-class performances on stage and in the studio.

The Chorus has collaborated with an impressive range of organizations and artists, this season alone with the New York Philharmonic, The National, Wye Oak, Shara Nova, International Contemporary Ensemble, and William Brittelle, and in previous seasons with Los Angeles Philharmonic, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, London Symphony Orchestra, Barbra Streisand, Arcade Fire, Sir Elton John, and Grizzly Bear. Recordings of the Chorus have been featured in major motion pictures, commercials, and live events, including several tracks in The Nationals new concept album I Am Easy To Find, a new work by Radioheads Thom Yorke for rag & bones Spring 2016 collection, Chanel Pariss 2019 Capsule campaign featuring Pharrell Williams, and Beyoncé and Jay-Zs OTR II World Tour. As a bold commissioner and producer of new music, the Chorus has introduced into the repertoire more than 120 original works and world premieres by contemporary composers, including collaborations with Pulitzer Prize-winner Caroline Shaw, Blues and R&B powerhouse Toshi Reagon, iconic British DJ Bishi, The Nationals Bryce Dessner, and ubiquitous indie-classical superstar Nico Muhly.
