Nathan featured in National Youth Choir’s 2025 Showcase

This February, the National Youth Choir celebrated the huge successes and invaluable contributions of their outgoing Emerging Professional Artists at an in-person event, and I am delighted to share the recording of that performance with you here.

Watch along for a snapshot into the exciting and dynamic year their 2024 cohort they had, and an introduction to their 2025 cohort of musicians: ten phenomenal artists from across the UK who care passionately about choral music, music education and new music. The showcase concludes with a performance of Nathan’s Everything about us.

What is the Emerging Professional Artist scheme?

Their Emerging Professional Artists schemes offer a fully funded, year-long programme of professional development opportunities to early career professionals from a diverse range of backgrounds and musical genres. The National Youth Choir’s Fellows, Composers and Conductors are at the heart of the National Youth Choir community, working closely with their staff, artists and singers during their year of professional development and beyond.

This year, they are celebrating ten years of our Emerging Professional Artist scheme. Over the past decade, they have worked with 82 artists; and are proud of their many wonderful achievements, and the very many ways in which they continue to enrich the work of National Youth Choir and the wider choral world.
