In May 2022, the YSC touring program was back up and running, with a company tour of JUNIOR HI, SENIOR HI, and ACT3 singers to the Canadian West Coast! Singers, staff, and TA’s spent five action-packed days full of sightseeing, choral workshops with YSC staff alumni Edette Gagne, and of course performances including the BEST. DAY.

Highlights included:
Restaurant-wide impromptu performance of “Hey Jude” at the Modern Cafe in Nanaimo, with guest accompaniment from the BC Musician, Nico Rhodes!
Professional choral workshop with Edette Gagne
Full-length BEST. DAY. EVER. Performance at the Port Theatre in Nanaimo, where we had the honour of having Elder Tseskinakhen (William Good) welcome us, and join in our audience.
