Music at Grace Concert Series – The Maryland State Boychoir

March 28 @ 7:30 pm

The next concert of the Music at Grace Concert Series will be on Friday, March 28 at 7:30 p.m. The Maryland State Boychoir will be performing at Grace as part of their Spring Concert Tour. Made up of 50 boys and young men, this choir is one you will not want to miss!|
The MSB performs over 80 times annually. They have performed throughout Maryland, in surrounding states, and on tours that have taken them to Ireland, Wales, England, The Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Italy, France, Canada, Iceland, Bermuda and more than thirty-five states in the mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Midwest, and Southwest regions of the U.S. Throughout the state of Maryland, the MSB has performed at the Baltimore Museum of Art, the Maryland Hall for the Creative Arts, the United States Naval Academy Chapel, the Meyerhoff Symphony Hall, the Lyric Opera House, the State House, the Governor’s Mansion, the College of Notre Dame of Maryland, and Loyola College. Throughout the U.S., the MSB has performed at the White House, the Kennedy Center, the PGA President’s Cup, the National Cathedral in Washington DC, St. Patrick’s and Holy Trinity Cathedrals in New York, Dickinson College in Pennsylvania, Capitol University in Ohio, and The University of Central Arkansas.
Since 2000, The Maryland State Boychoir has hosted the Baltimore Boychoir Festival, which brings together boys and young men from across the country to strengthen their choral skills, deepen their sense of community, and celebrate their art. In 2002, the MSB launched a Goodwill Ambassador program in which choristers visit schools, retirement communities, and other areas of special public interest. Choristers are taught about diversity and the power music has to overcome differences. The Boychoir also conducts a mandatory, week-long residential summer camp. In addition to music making at camp, the boys participate in a well-rounded program of games, electives, and sports. A similar camp is held for three days in the winter. Finally, the MSB schedules teen and choirboy nights throughout the year for members to play basketball, have pizza, go on outings, and bond as choristers.

All concerts are free to the public. A free-will offering is accepted. Parking is easily accessible and the building is handicap accessible.
