The Atlanta Boy Choir, Inc. Information

For many years it was said that Europeans knew our city because of Coca-Cola and the Atlanta Boy Choir. This was because for forty-five years these wonderful young boys under the direction of Fletcher Wolfe sang in practically every concert hall, cathedral and music festival in the world. They sang to audiences in England, Scotland, Wales, France, Germany, Spain, Morocco, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Finland and Russia not to mention tours in Mexico, Alaska, Nova Scotia and British Columbia. Their visits abroad have included performances for many heads of state as well as five performances given at St Peters in Rome with Pope John Paul II officiating. They have appeared several times at the White House and were invited to sing at President Carter's inauguration. The Atlanta Boy Choir has appeared many times with Atlanta Symphony Orchestra Conductors Robert Shaw and Yoel Levi and won a Grammy Award for the recording of Benjamin Brittens War Requiem. Atlantans and particularly thousands of boys who have gone through the choirs ranks are most excited about the return of Maestro Fletcher Wolfe, the choir's founding director.
