Print Friendly Page 
All-American Boys' Chorus The All-American Boys Chorus has performed to standing ovations all over the world, including Moscow, Leningrad and Kiev in Russia; Bucharest, Sibiu and Iasi in Romania; Vienna and Salzburg in Austria; Venice, Florence, Assisi and Rome in Italy; Grachen and Zermatt in Switzerland; Friesing and Erlangen in Germany; and the eight largest cities in Japan. The Chorus's most recent overseas concert tour, extending nearly a month during summer 2002, saw them performing in Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, Korea and Beijing. Factor in 33 previous concert tours to various provinces of Canada and the U.S., and it's clear that members of The All-American Boys Chorus are true musical ambassadors.

Among the Chorus's TV credits are commercials for Mazda, TWA and Kentucky Fried Chicken. The AABC has appeared with entertainers and artists such as Bob Hope, Tony Bennett, Paul Anka, Victor Borge, Della Reese, Melissa Manchester and Mary Hart. It also has shared the stage with noted statesmen, industrialists and celebrities. Among them are former presidents Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan and George Bush; former chancellor Helmut Kohl of Germany; plus Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf, Gen. Colin Powell (now Secretary of State), Henry Kissinger, Lee Iacocca and Walter Cronkite.

Founded in 1970, The All-American Boys Chorus has completed more than 30 years of remarkable growth and significant achievements. The AABC entered the 21st century with a program acclaimed for its musical excellence. The Chorus has also been lauded for instilling and fostering leadership skills and characteristics in its current membership of 150 boys and nearly 800 alumni. Artistic collaborations with Opera Pacific, the Pacific Symphony Orchestra, the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra and the William Hall Master Chorale have given the Chorus a notable stature. Community outreach performances in schools have also reached more than 15,000 children
