We Are World Champions

The Voices of Unity Youth Choir are gold medalists and World Champions at the World Choir Games in Auckland, New Zealand!

A NEW DAWN for

THE VOICES OF UNITY YOUTH CHOIR

After nearly a decade away, July 2024 marked our much-anticipated return to the international stage at the 13th World Choir Games. But it was more than just a competition; it represented a hopeful resurgence for our choir after a pandemic that sought to knock us down and tested our resolve.

But we committed to RISE UP to the occasion – Our moment is NOW!

Students from ages 6 to 18 with eight adult alumni not only won gold (scoring 92.5 out of 100), but they were judged higher than any other gold medal-winning choir in their category for the title of World Champions. Led by Music Director Marshall White, who founded UNITY 24 years ago, this choir is one of the youngest ever to compete in the games. Voices of Unity and the Unity Performing Arts Foundation transform young lives into high-character leaders through the platform of the arts.

“

Unity has changed my life! It has been one of the greatest seeds planted in my life! It has been an environment of building my fullest potential. Unity helped me develop character, self-esteem, organization, and leadership. I think it is the one and only organization that allows you to be yourself and encourages you to follow your dreams.

My experience at UNITY has been exceptional. Meeting new people and making connections through lessons and activities. Teaching me greatness through their great staff and programs. They've taught me the key factor of being an excellent individual in all aspects
beyond music, but as a person.
