About Young Voices of Houston

The Prizes!

How it works...

• The contest features up to 12 vocalists from all across Houston!
• Contestants register online, first-come, first-served.
• Each contestant is given 5-7 minutes to perform a song of their choice, with accompaniment track.
• No other props may be used - only the singer may be on stage.
• The performance is before a live audience at LRC, (Click here for map) in Northwest Houston.
• The contestants are evaluated by a panel of three judges in the following five areas...
1. VOCAL ABILITY - How solid and well developed is their voice?
2. INTERPRETATION - How well does the performer get us to understand their piece?
3. MOVEMENT - Is their body language, staging, and choreography done well and appropriate for the song?
4. STAGE PRESENCE - How pleasing, comfortable, and in control is the performer and do they connect with the audience?
5. OVERALL SHOWMANSHIP - Do the above four elements fit together in a total package and performance?
• Every contestant is awarded at least $25, a Culture Shapers t-shirt, a certificate of participation and a video clip of their performance posted online.
• PLUS! The Top Three are automatically eligible to return and compete in the annual YVOH FINAL competition, where the cash prizes total more than $5,000!
