Ep 72 - Building Inclusivity and Community Through Choral Music with Carrie Tennant, part 2

Welcome back to The Vocal Lab Podcast! This is the second episode of my inspiring conversation with Carrie Tennant, founder and artistic director of the Vancouver Youth Choir (VYC). In this episode, Carrie delves deeper into how the VYC has created a unique choral organization focused on joy, authenticity, and results.
VYC offers a diverse range of music, from classical to pop and compositions from underrepresented communities. They have innovative programs like the VYC Concert Bursary Program, which provides free tickets and transportation for students, and VYC Kindred, an Indigenous music and drumming program for newcomer youth.
Carrie also highlights her two curated choral series:
✨ The Vancouver Youth Choir Series
✨ The Carrie Tennant Choral Series
These series amplify diverse voices and prioritize authenticity and vulnerability in every performance. We discuss how VYC values physical expression and encourages their singers to connect deeply with their audience.
Join us as we uncover how this dynamic organization is promoting inclusivity, joy, and a strong sense of community through the power of choral music.
Catch the full episode and be inspired by Carrie’s passion for creating an environment where every voice matters.
