The Phoenix Boys Choir will perform two shows of classical music in Carefree and Phoenix.

The show, “Sounds of Ascent,” will include members of the Tucson Arizona Boys Chorus. The first show takes place at 2 p.m. Saturday, March 16 at Pinnacle Presbyterian Church, 25150 N. Pima Road, in Carefree, and the second starts at 2 p.m. Sunday, March 17 at First United Methodist Church, 5510 N. Central Ave., in Phoenix.

The March 16 performance is free at Pinnacle Presbyterian. Tickets for the March 17 performance are $30 for adults and $10 for youth 12 and under, and are available at boyschoir.org.

The centerpiece of “Sounds of Ascent” will be Handel's “Coronation Anthems” with a cappella and instrumental performances. More than 85 voices comprised of Phoenix Boys Choir and the Tucson Arizona Boys Choir will perform, led by PBC Artistic Director Herbert Washington.

The program will also feature the world premiere of “Foreign Lands” by Polish composer Zuzanna Koziej. This new piece for treble voices was awarded the third-place prize in the 2023 New Works Rising Choral Composition Competition.

For more than 76 years the Phoenix Boys Choir has provided choral music training, performance opportunities and learning experiences for young people. Each year, the Choir offers a full season of concert performances offering a wide repertoire from classical to popular selections. The Choir tours domestically and internationally, participates in music festivals, and sings with other professional groups.
