Chromatics

Weekly rehearsal

Day Start Finish
Mondays 18:15 19:30

Sessions run from late September until the end of May with breaks scheduled for Christmas, Carnival, and Easter as well as national and local public holidays.

All weekly sessions are held in our rehearsal space at Via Solferino 17.

Chromatics is our premier ensemble for secondary school students. From multi-movement masterworks to challenging a cappella arrangements of popular songs, the selection of music for this group reflects their continued mastery of the vocal arts. Building on the YCM foundational principles of healthy vocal production and music literacy, choristers have the opportunity to gain a deep understanding of the history of music as they sample the many treasures in the choral canon. They also serve on the front lines of contemporary music making by sponsoring and championing the work of living composers.

Special workshops

In addition to our regularly scheduled weekly rehearsals, we also hold special workshops throughout the year (always on a Friday, 5-7pm) at which the full YCM chorus – comprising the Chromatics, Overtones, and Harmonics choirs – and our Musical Theatre section come together. These two-hour sessions are much more than general rehearsals. Expert guests are invited to share their knowledge and experience. Team-building exercises are run to forge lasting friendships and a shared sense of belonging. And plenty of time is devoted to having FUN!

Performances throughout the artistic season

YCM believes strongly in giving our choristers multiple opportunities to perform. We want our young artists to experience the sense of satisfaction that is felt as a result of hours of acquiring new skills and overcoming challenges to gain mastery. No matter the venue, these performances are sure to be peak experiences for choristers and audience alike, showcasing weeks and months of musical preparation and dedication.

Annual fees

YCM’s program runs from September through May. Tuition is to be paid in a single installment of €650 at the time of enrollment.

Additionally, choristers must purchase the YCM published music rights packet at a cost of €30.

As Chromatics choristers are protagonists at our YCM performances, we require parents to sign a consent form at the time of enrollment to allow YCM to utilize photos, videos, and recordings of their chorister to promote YCM and/or our activities.

Registration is currently open for the 2022/2023 season. Our next Open Day – where prospective choristers can meet our instructors, get to know our current choristers, and experience a YCM rehearsal – will be Monday, September 26th, 18:15-19:30.
