THE BROMLEY BOY SINGERS  is a concert choir with a well-established reputation for quality performance and musical education.

​Our aim is to help boys discover their musical abilities in an environment that encourages them to have fun while avoiding the peer pressure that can sometimes discourage them from singing at school.

“The boys are fully engaged and possess a high level of expertise and skill. The audience are left in awe as the concert unfolds – a unique emotional experience and interaction with the performers”.   

Philip Elgie 

To achieve that the choir – ages 5-21 split into 4 groups – is​ completely independent of any school or church, financed entirely from subscriptions and donations and receives no funding from statutory bodies.

The choir performs an average of 10 concerts per year around Bromley and in central London, take part in local and national competitions, and tour abroad.
