Teen Voices of the City Ensemble, or T-VOCE (tee VO-chay), is a FREE inclusive choir that welcomes youth from all backgrounds to share their talents and be themselves in a safe and supportive space. Open to anyone ages 13-19, we use choral music to build musicianship and vocal skills, but also as a means of self-expression, explore issues important to our members, and to build community. T-VOCE comes from the Italian word "voce," meaning "voice," because this choir empowers and celebrates the voice of Philadelphia youth and their overwhelming talents.
There are no auditions; all you need is a love of singing! It’s FREE to participate!
Workshops will also be offered for teens to explore other forms of expression including poetry writing, spoken word, singer-songwriting, and more.
T-VOCE is a collaboration between Artístas y Músicos Latino Americanos (AMLA), ArtSmart, Espernaza Art Center, Fortress Arts Academy, Opera Philadelphia, and Singing City
