Description:

The Raleigh Boychoir was founded in 1968 by Thomas E. Sibley, who believed a boychoir could be instrumental in developing and channeling boys' talents as well as giving them opportunities to perform great choral music..​

The Boychoir's annual home season is comprised of three performances: the Fall Concert, the traditional Carols of Christmas, and a Spring Concert.  A year's schedule is filled out with 15-20 engagements, with programs ranging from ​sacred and secular classics, selections from the musical theater, and a rich assortment of American folk and patriotic music. The Choir calls the recently renovated Raleigh Boychoir Centre on Ridge Rd. home.  You can regularly find the choir performing at Edenton Street United Methodist and St. Michael's Episcopal Churches in addition to numerous other venues throughout the Triangle.  The group routinely travels on state-wide, national and international tours, with a trip to London set for June 2012..  

The mission of the Raleigh Boychoir is to educate and train boys ages 7-14 in the art of singing, to perform the finest music in the boychoir tradition, to contribute to musical life in the greater Raleigh area, and to enhance North Carolina's cultural reputation.

Fun Facts:

• The choir was founded with a $50 contribution from the Woman's Club of Raleigh
• Robert Unger, Artistic Director for The Boychoir, is only the second person to hold that position
