	Under the direction of Co-Artistic Director Frank J. Van Atta, the Boychoir sings a diverse enthralling repertoire from the classical to the contemporary.

The Philadelphia Inquirer review declared KSB’s performance in the Bach St. Matthew Passion “excellent.” Beyond the traditional choral canon, KSB prides itself in singing with authenticity and integrity world music from every corner of the globe.

Keystone State Boychoir has sung with the region’s most distinguished ensembles, including the Philadelphia Orchestra, Opera Philadelphia (for which it serves as official boychoir), and the Philadelphia Singers, and at the region’s most prominent venues, including Verizon Hall at the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts, the Academy of Music, the Mann Center for the Performing Arts, Broadway, and Carnegie Hall. Internationally the Boychoir has sung at the Manaus Opera House in Brazil, the Hanoi Opera House in Vietnam, and the Petronas Philharmonik Hall in Malaysia, as well as in venues throughout Alaska, Canada, South Africa, Japan, Thailand, Cambodia, Australia, Monaco, France, Germany, Austria, and Bulgaria, Norway, England, India, New Zealand, and Tasmania.
