Frequently Asked Questions
What must I do if I want to bring singers to this event?
Email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it by October 1, 2011 to let him know that you are coming.
How much does it cost to register/bring my choir to Boys to Men?
Each director is responsible for ordering the music for his/her choir. There is no additional cost for participating groups beyond providing their own music and transportation.
What should my singers wear to the rehearsal and the concert?
This year all performing choirs will wear their B uniforms, as opposed to tuxedos. For most adult choirs this will be something like a polo/golf shirt and khaki pants. Students are encouraged to wear a T-shirt or polo with their school’s/choir’s name on it.
What songs will the massed choir sing?
“God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen,” arr. Philip Kern
“Star of the County Down,” Douglas E. Wagner
“Come Travel with Me,” Scott Farthing
Can my school ensemble sing alone, as do the adult choirs?
Definitely! Just contact me as soon as possible to let me know your desire to do so. Please remember that there is time limit on each group’s participation.
