About North Coast Singers

What to Expect in an Audition

Welcome to San Diego North Coast Singers

San Diego North Coast Singers is recognized for its exceptional artistic quality and the joyous and spirited performance of songs from diverse cultures. The non-profit youth chorus program was founded in 1993 by Sally Husch Dean. It has grown to five ensembles, including four youth choirs serving singers and a women’s chamber chorus. We hope you join us for a concert or event soon!
