Greetings! Who is ready to kick off the 2020-2021 season? We know that we are! It has been way too long since we’ve raised our voices in song. This year we are doing things like we’ve never done before…we are going 100% virtual! We know that our choristers love to sing and we have developed a program that will be engaging, safe, and most importantly fun for all of our choir levels.
Iowa Youth Chorus offers programming for students in 1st - 12th grade. Children in Primary Choir will be virtually exploring different countries around the world through instruments, games, and songs. Singers in Children’s Chorus or Chorale will be watching weekly recorded lessons and collaborating with their conductor and other choristers in their choir through scheduled Zoom meetings. Choristers will develop musical skills, rehearse songs, and ultimately record themselves so we can virtually gather for our annual “Candy Cane” and “Spring Sing” concert!
Please take a moment and look around our brand new website! Pay special attention to the “MY IYC” tab in the top right of the screen. Once registered, you will get a login and password to view this special section of our website. You will be able to find the Zoom links, recorded lessons, and additional information that is exclusively for our registered choristers. Information about registration, rehearsal times, and tuition can be found under the “Choirs” tab on the website.
We know that many things have changed for all of us since March 2020. But as always, we continue to believe that “Music Changes the World!” Come raise your voice and change the world with us!
We've had to make some changes for this week's Plant Sale. Our pickup for Week 2 will be Sunday, May 15 from 1:00-2:00 pm at Franklin Junior High School. Orders this week are due by Thursday, May 12! Click below to order and help Iowa Youth Chorus bring music to even more children in Central Iowa!

Our hearts are full!! After a year and 10 months, we were FINALLY able to get these amazing choristers back on stage! The students worked so hard learning the music each week, practicing for 2 hours and then raising their voices in song at our Candy Cane Concert!
Thank you all so much for attending and for your constant support of the organization!
We are already looking forward to our next concert - Spring Sing!
If you know a Kindergarten - 12th grader who would like to join us, please email us at info@iowayouthchorus.org or send us a message!! We would love to welcome your singing to our choir family!! ... See MoreSee Less
