International Concert Tours

The Australian Youth Choir and the Australian Youth Dance Theatre explore new performing territory with regular International Concert tours.

The Australian Youth Choir has given Recitals in the world's finest cathedrals and Concert Halls, celebrating its 30 year Anniversary in 2005 with Aled Jones and members of the Choir’s Alumni at a Gala concert at the Royal Albert Hall, London.

The Australian Choir and the Australian Youth Dance Theatre have also undertaken shared concert tours and have twice performed at Carnegie Hall, New York.

More recently, the Australian Youth Dance Theatre travelled and performed in Jakarta, Indonesia and the Choir undertook a concert tour in 2008 that included performances in Barcelona, Madrid and Lisbon, Rome and London.

Touring internationally provides both Choristers and Dancers with memorable performance opportunities and magnificent sight seeing adventures.

2009 will mark the twenty - eighth International tour undertaken and will provide the Australian Youth Dance Theatre with a very exciting opportunity to travel and perform in a new international setting for NIYPAA. Our dancers have been invited to travel to China to perform at the 5th International Dance Festival in Beijing. Our students will perform alongside 24 dance teams from 16 representative countries. An audience of 10,000 people is expected to watch them. It will be a marvellous opportunity to represent Australia. In addition they will have to opportunity to visit the Great Wall of China, the magnificent “Forbidden City” and the spectacular “Bird’s Nest” Stadium.
