ABOUT FAUST INTERNATIONAL YOUTH CHOIR - Ages 9 to 18

Faust International Youth Choir aims to ignite a passion for singing and unlock the potential of our voice. As a Show Choir we aim to provide an opportunity for young people to showcase their talents, both as individuals and as an ensemble. We will be covering many aspects of performing in a chorus, including vocal techniques, harmony, and acting through song. Performances will take place in December and June with parents and the wider community in attendance. Additional performance opportunities may also be possible throughout the year.

The choir’s Musical Director is Micah Sandt, internationally trained composer and performer and experienced choir leader. The choir’s Artistic Director, Emma York, is an actor and accomplished theatre director who has shared her passion for performance with young Faust members since the very beginning, back in 1999.

2025 – 2026 SEASON

Preparations for our next concert will begin in March. Details to be announced soon.

Please find here photos of our winter concert.

LOCATION

Wesleyan House, 271 Queens Road East Wan Chai
Saturdays 4pm – 6pm

Faust International Youth Choir is initially open to all. Vocal assessments will be held before term commences so the Musical Director and Artistic Director can establish what vocal range each member has, and the best way for their voices to be employed, such as Soprano/Treble, Alto, Tenor, Bass.

Please note that there are quotas for various age groups in Faust International Youth Choir. For example, if you discover that there are currently no places for your 9 year old, this would mean we have already registered the maximum number of 9 year olds we can currently accommodate, and your child will be added to a waiting list.
