YST Concert Hall

Do not miss our Cantiamo performance at the end of the semester, featuring Voice majors presenting songs and arias from the major proponents of the bel canto tradition of singing.

ABOUT A CELEBRATION OF BEL CANTO

The YST Voice Department presents a semester-long celebration of bel canto (“beautiful singing”), exploring the artistry and enduring legacy of this defining vocal tradition.

Through performances and our Voice Discovery Series, we will present music from composers who are credited with the birth of the Bel Canto style of singing, all the way through to modern composers whose works are still influenced by the concepts inherent in it.
