The Texas Youth Chorale will be hosting its first Legacy Gala today, October 10th at 7:00 pm at the Denton Visual Arts Center. This will be a fundraiser to support the Texas Youth Chorale, including its upcoming international tour to Ireland. As a choir, we are focusing on the word legacy – our current singers are the pioneers of the Texas Youth Chorale. We want to build a lasting foundation now to ensure that the next group of singers will receive the same or better experience in TYC.

Our program at the Legacy Gala will include a TYC performance, a keynote speaker, and the presentation of the Community Servant’s Heart Award. Tracy Kornet, CBS News, will speak about leadership and the role of our singers, as children, learning to lead in our community and world.

The Community Servant’s Heart Award is a new recognition award selected and given by TYC. Our singers have been challenged to identify individuals in our community who do good quietly – those who help make lives better because of their work and should be applauded for their efforts.
