Running a youth chorus is a daunting task. Despite the challenges, young people’s choirs are flourishing thanks to the commitment of talented choral directors — and the popularity of TV shows like “Glee”.
Last week the San Francisco Girls Chorus (which, alongside the San Francisco Boys Chorus, performed at President Obama’s inauguration in 2009) became the first American vocal ensemble to win a place in the finals of “Let the Peoples Sing,” a prestigious international choral competition organized by the European Broadcasting Union.
One of only three youth choirs from around the globe to make the cut, the San Francisco Girls Chorus plans to travel to Manchester, England, in October to compete against groups from Estonia and Sweden.
