Accolades
-
"The boys...sing with such suave enthusiasm, capturing the spirit and sensibility of the music, they deserve the spotlight on themselves, and the applause too."
-
"It is a great to be at a place where singing is cool for the boys."
-
"It has been a great pleasure during my years as music director of the Seattle Symphony to often work with the Northwest Boychoir. They are a superb ensemble; wonderfully trained by their extremely gifted music director, Joseph Crnko. I actually go out of my way to try to find works that incorporate a boys choir so that I can work with these talented young men and they always have all of my support."
-
"And an amazingly gifted teen quartet Vocalpoint show skill and effortlessly blend their voices on 'Angel Eyes' and 'Walking My Baby Back Home.'" (Music of the Mad Men Era - Seattle Symphony Pops)
-
"If you want to learn music, this is the place to do it."
-
"Among the most moving was a set of Viktor Ullmann's choral arrangements of Yiddish and Hebrew songs, sung by the incomparable Northwest Boychoir, led by artistic director Joseph Crnko. How this group manages what it does is astonishing. These six songs are all over the emotional and rhythmic map, but the boychoir never faltered."
-
“Working with the Northwest Boychoir was a great experience. When those boys were added in that night – it just changed the entire piece for me. I was in awe of their sound. Clearly, for me, this score would have not been as strong without them.”
-
"Crnko has been conductor of The Northwest Boychoir for a quarter-century, and perhaps it's his great care not to overstrain young voices - while at the same time eliciting beautiful singing from them - that has brought such success to the Symphony Chorale."
-
“There is a reason for that popularity: The group (Northwest Boychoir) is astonishingly good.”
-
“The Northwest Boychoir has affected my life an incredible amount, not only because of its world-class musicality, but also because of the amazing friendships I have made and the life morals I have learned from my teachers and mentors at choir. I am motivated to continue my musical and philosophical education with this organization because I recognize how much it has already affected my life, and I know that it will continue to do so.”
-
“Having been involved with music performance and education for many years, I have never come across a music educational system for children such as this. Our family is very grateful and impressed with the professional, high caliber staff. I must add that being involved with Northwest Choirs is just plain fun, too!“
-
"Lessons and Carols was the best Christmas present we’ve had for years. We were truly, truly thrilled with the concert!"
-
"I was so incredibly thrilled to work with the fine young gentlemen of Vocalpoint in my recent concerts with the Seattle Symphony. When I first met and heard them, I was blown away by the fact that these guys were still in High School! They have a musicality, sense of pitch, and professionalism the belies their years. I'll happily work with them again...anytime and anywhere."
