The Bahamas National Youth Choir, will mark its 25th concert season with a milestone of a performance. The choristers which comprise students and young professionals between the ages of 18 and 25 will be joined by members of the Choir's Alumni Association to make the opening of the concert season one to remember.

The concert that takes place March 25-28 at The Dundas Centre for the Performing Arts will cover a wide genre of music. The repertoire will includes items performed over the years and a variety of choral favorite composers such as spiritual arrangements by the famous American composer Moses Hogan and classic works of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and George Frideric Handel.

Established in 1990, the choir has become well-known for a repertoire that showcases both the vocal talent and engaging stage presence of the members. The choir maintains a reputation for delivering performances of the highest caliber and has filled concert halls across the Caribbean, Europe and North America. Traditionally, the concert season marks the beginning of the choir's annual tour. The choir is able to tour because of the support of the patrons of the events and donations from corporate Bahamas.

The founder and artistic director of the choir is Cleophas R.E. Adderley, a musician and composer who has performed in the presence of notable world figures including Nelson Mandela, Queen Elizabeth II and former presidents of the United States.
The concert will be held under the patronage of Governor General Dame Marguerite Pindling.
