The Minnesota Boychoir is a small performing arts organization based in St. Paul, Minnesota, founded in 1962 as the oldest boy choir in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area. It develops young men into skilled choristers and seeks to build poise and self-confidence through education and performance. The ensemble serves boys from diverse backgrounds and pursues high standards in choral music while aiming to benefit the broader community. Its schedule features national and international tours that bring choral performances to audiences across many states and five continents. Notable engagements include headlining the World Voices Australia International Choral Festival at the Sydney Opera House in 2007. The 50th anniversary season in 2011 began with a tour of Italian cities—Milan, Venice, Florence and Rome—and included a Mass at Saint Peter’s Basilica, along with solo performances at Orchestra Hall in Minneapolis and at the State Capitol.
