Excellence in Music and Character
For over 50 years, our program has instilled a mentality of excellence in both music and personal development.
Teamwork and Personal Growth
Choral music requires listening to others and working together, fostering accountability and mutual respect.
Comprehensive
Training
We teach fundamental skills like music reading, solfège, rhythm, and ear training. No previous training is required.

Older members enjoy incredible opportunities, such as performing with the Seattle Symphony, recording on movie soundtracks and Grammy-nominated albums, and embarking on national tours.
Financial Aid
The Northwest Boychoir is proud to be an inclusive and equitable organization and is firmly committed to assisting families with financial aid. No family is turned away for financial reasons!
