Yuba Sutter Arts & Culture is pleased to announce the return of the Yuba Sutter Youth Choir. We completed the Spring 2024 season with the theme “Retro Groovy ‘70s.” and our “Better Not Put” Winter 2024 performance was spectacular.
Auditions for our “Movie Mania” Spring 2025 performance have closed but keep an eye out for our Winter 2025 auditions to post.
The Youth Choir is directed by the incomparable Gay Galvin. Gay has been singing and playing piano since she was six years old. Trained in classical and jazz styles, she has worked in big bands, musicals, jazz trios, and various classical ensembles. She is an accomplished vocalist and has taught choir at all age levels. Gay is a founder of the Yuba Sutter Big Band. Originally from Ohio, Gay has a master’s degree in music. She teaches piano in her studio in Marysville. She plays most musical genres and has even played in rock bands. Gay also leads her own jazz trio.
“I’m so privileged to lead the youth choir again this year,” said Gay. “And what better way to engage young singers than with the universally loved songs from the ‘70s,” she added.
“We are pleased to be able to restart our Youth Choir program and especially now that we can continue to offer it to students at a significantly reduced rate thanks to additional grant funding we’ve received,”
