A HARLEM CHORAL LEGACY
In honor of
Walter Turnbull.
Walter Turnbull founded the Boys Choir of Harlem in 1968, creating an extraordinary musical and educational institution. We honor his contribution and the generations of young singers whose artistry shaped Harlem's cultural history.
Today's Harlem Boys Choir is a distinct, independent organization with its own leadership and mission. We are inspired by that tradition while building our own future.
