In April 2020, The Young Professionals Choral Collective (YPCC) of Cincinnati presents: Sing Out @Home - a remote virtual choir project that features over 75 performers and collaborators from across the YPCC community. Connecting people is at the heart of everything YPCC. This project was initiated in response to the COVID-19 crisis as a way to strengthen community connections beyond our homes.
Thanks to support from a generous grant given by the David C. Herriman Fund at Greater Cincinnati Foundation, YPCC launched the Young Professional Composers Project in 2019. This project is designed to commission young professional composers to write original choral works and further engage these composers with YPCC and the Cincinnati community. This Sing Out @Home project features 'Light and Love,' composed by Jacob Stone and commissioned by YPCC. Find out more about the Young Professional Composers Project, 'Light and Love,' and composer Jacob Stone at here.
Connecting people is at the heart of everything YPCC. As you know, connecting people in-person is not the right thing for our community right now. We miss getting to share a round of drinks after rehearsal, swap work stories, and lift our voices up together, and we know that now, more than ever, it is important to feel community connections beyond our homes.
In an effort to help create these connections, we are happy to introduce you to YPCC // Sing Out @Home… a virtual community choir project that invites anyone to participate across the world. We sincerely hope that this project gives you a sense of connection to your musical community - something that we know might be missing right now.
The YPCC community is staying connected through virtual rehearsals, happy hours, watch parties, and other engagement events this season. Stay tuned to our Facebook Page and join the YPCC Mailing List so you don’t miss a beat!
