About this Event
The purpose of the New Amsterdam Boys & Girls Choir (NABGC) is to enrich the lives of children in the East Harlem community, using choral singing as a catalyst.
The choir was established in 1986 as the New Amsterdam Boys Choir. In 2008, it broadened its mission to serve girls. The choir annually gives 10-15 New York City performances, and since 2009, it has taken three trips to Canada. Other venues have included performances in Maryland, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut, Vermont, and Nebraska. Prior to 2008, the boys choir also made three trips to Germany.
The NABGC has been in partnership with the music program of the Unitarian Church All Souls for several years. This includes NABGC singing with the church's professional choir and participating in workshops led by members of the adult choir. In addition, the NABGC performs regularly with the All Souls Children's choir, which is also led by James Backmon.
