Boys choir sets final performance of season

The Central Minnesota Boys Choir will perform its final concert for the 2015-2016 season on June 7 at 7:30 p.m. at Sacred Heart Church in Staples.

The concert will feature both the Explorer and Voyageur choir levels. The public is invited to attend. Tickets will be available at the door. All proceeds will be used to support the choir for annual programming costs.

Led by director Mary Moen, the choir has over 50 boys in third through seventh grade from throughout the area, including Brainerd, Browerville, Motley, New York Mills, Pillager, Staples, Verndale and Wadena. 

Younger students and first time members make up the Explorer choir. The upper elementary and middle school students typically make up the Voyager choir. The choir’s primary goal is to develop musical interest, leadership skills and talent in its members.

Each season both choir levels perform both locally and away. This year, the Voyageur choir performed at the Boys Choir Festival held at St. John’s University in March. Their annual tour the first weekend of June will be held in Duluth.
