10th Anniversary Concert

Sunday, November 3, 2024 | 5:00 p.m.

Celebrate a decade of harmony and community at the American Feel Young Chorus 10th Anniversary Concert! Established in early 2015 within the Irvine Chinese community, this choir has blossomed into a vibrant group of over 100 members, united by their love of singing. Originally gathering to sing Chinese songs for major holidays, their dedication has transformed into regular practice sessions under the guidance of a professional conductor.

Over the years, the choir has become a staple in the Chinese community, performing a diverse repertoire that includes Chinese folk songs, art songs, and classical choral music. Their resilience shone through even during the pandemic, as they continued to sing and practice.

This milestone concert will feature an array of musical pieces in various languages, including French, Italian, English, and Chinese. The program will showcase different styles, from Chinese folk music and choral art songs to operatic highlights. The evening will also include a world premiere of new arrangements that blend American and Chinese songs, along with instrumental and solo performances.
