Bread of Life Great Park Church (BOLGPC) Youth Chamber Ensemble is a church sponsored Youth Ministry to provide music education, to offer special music in church worship, and to actively involve in missionary and community services.
The Youth Chamber Ensemble rehearse weekly in the Orchestral seasons, coached by our professional musician Staff and have the opportunities to play with Local Ensembles. We offer group lessons and private lessons taught by our professional musician Staff.
Our teaching goes beyond the music techniques to mentor artistic pathways leading to extraordinary musicianship. Musical excellence requires a mastery of ten unique qualities of the soul and human spirit, such as confidence, passion, discipline, creativity and relaxed concentration(1). The Youth Chamber Ensemble models the conductor-less Orpheus Chamber Orchestra(2,3) in employing a democratic model of collaborative leadership in an orchestral setting. The combination of the intimacy and warmth of a chamber ensemble with the richness of an orchestra is a distinctive feature of the Youth Chamber Ensemble.
Through church worships and community services as well as the novel process of music-making and shared leadership style(4,5), the students will learn and grow to be responsible citizens in the society.

大公園靈糧堂 (BOLGPC) 青少年室內樂團是由教會主辦、收取費用的青少年活動。活動包括音樂教育，在教會崇拜中提供特別的音樂節目，並積極參與傳福音和社區服務。
青少年室內樂團每週排練，由我們專業音樂家團隊執教；並有機會與在地樂團合奏。我們提供團体音樂課程，以及個人音樂課程由我們專業音樂家們教導。
除了音樂技術的教導以外，我們加入藝術途徑的指導來協助團員達到非凡的音樂才能。音樂的卓越需要掌握十種人類靈魂和精神的獨特品質；如信心、 激情、 紀律、 創造力和輕鬆的專注(1)。我們青少年室內樂團學習無人指揮的「奧菲斯室內樂團」；在管弦樂的領域中、實行協同領導民主模式(2)。結合室內樂團的親密、溫暖和交響樂團的豐富大型合奏是我們青少年室內樂團的一大特色。
通過教會的崇拜和社區服務，以及新穎的音樂製作和共同領導(3,4) 過程，學生將學習和成長成為負責任的公民。
