Melbourne Youth Chorale (MYC) Est 1986
provides financially-accessible & professional musical education and choral performance experiences.
MYC choirs are for ALL young people aged 3–20 years old, including children with additional needs.
Rehearsals are every Wednesday, in Berwick, City of Casey, Melbourne, and several performances are held throughout the year.
In 2026, MYC consists of 6 main choirs for a diverse range of ages and abilities, providing 140+ choristers with quality music instruction using the Kodály method. We rehearse Wednesday afternoons and evenings during school terms, at Timbarra College in Berwick.
We believe in the transformational power of choral music to develop confident and well-rounded young people—that's why we keep fees affordable, depending on grants and donations—and entry is not auditioned. How to support MYC
Founded in Berwick in 1986 by Jean Herriot OAM, MYC relocated to Hampton Park in 2022 and then back to Berwick in 2026. About Melbourne Youth Chorale
