The Youth Choir Aarhus U consists of 40 talented choir singers aged 15-26 from the Aarhus choir community. Aarhus U was formed in 2015, and since October 2017, the choir has been led by Jonas Rasmussen, who took over the baton from the choir’s founders, Carsten Seyer-Hansen and Birgitte Næslund Madsen.
Aarhus U is characterized by singing an equal mix of classical and rhythmic music. This ensures that concerts are always varied and cater to all tastes. The choir sings most of the repertoire by heart and always aims to provide the audience with an extraordinary experience. Many of the pieces performed are lightly choreographed, and the choir strives to experiment with the expectations of a “normal” choir concert.
