The Youth Choir of Central Oregon is the region’s premier extra-curricular choral music program

whose mission is to provide an opportunity for musical expression and education in a joyful environment.

Founded in 1990 by Beth Basham, the Youth Choir of Central Oregon has enriched the lives of thousands of Central Oregon young singers with its quality music education. YCCO is a community-based choral program that provides advanced vocal experiences for talented first grade through twelfth grade students with unchanged singing voices in three choirs, Singers School, Debut Choir and Premiere Choir.

We believe music makes a difference in the lives of all people, but particularly in the lives of children and teenagers. At YCCO, students are encouraged to explore and expand their love of music. In the Youth Choir of Central Oregon, they will learn their passion for singing is a gift to be cherished and nurtured.

Beth Basham and her YCCO staff have expanded children’s minds and musical abilities to make them leaders in their schools while showing audiences that children’s voices can be sophisticated, profoundly musical and artistically excellent.
