About the Boychoir
The Oregon Boychoir is Eugene’s premier community choir for boys entering grades 6 through 8. Keeping with their three main goals of Performance, Enrichment and Respect, they learn and perform an eclectic repertoire including classical, contemporary and popular music. The boys learn how to adapt to their changing voices in an accepting, challenging and stimulating environment. Given many chances to perform, the singers develop confidence and a sense of pride as they work as a team to achieve what would be impossible individually. The Boychoir year crescendos to an unforgettable annual performance tour to destinations such as California, Washington and Oregon where the boys share their love of singing with others on a global scale.
