Rochester Boys Choir in CONCERT

Christ Church is excited to host the Rochester Boys Choir in a special concert event on Thursday, April 20, at 7:00 p.m. in the sanctuary. The visiting choir will perform an hour-long concert which will feature works by Benjamin Britten, Randall Thompson, and folk songs from around the United States. David Klement, the founder and director of the Rochester Boys Choir, is the Director of Music at the 2300-member Asbury First United Methodist Church in Rochester, NY.

Founded in January 2002, the Rochester Boys Choir is an independent, community-based family of choirs for boys with unchanged treble voices ages 7 and up. Talented boy singers are drawn from throughout the greater Rochester, new York metropolitan area. The choir’s mission is to train and encourage boys in the art of fine choral singing by promoting the boy choir tradition through a wide variety of public and private performances.

The Rochester Boys Choir concert at Christ Church is free and open to the public. There will be a goodwill offering to help offset the costs of the RBC tour to Colorado. Following the concert there will be a reception and opportunity to meet the young members of the choir. If you are interested in being an overnight host family for the boys and their adult chaperones, please contact Ben Riggs at the Christ Church office.
