About the Ensemble

Bound to Sing is a boys’ choir for boys with unchanged voices and was founded by Bill Reihl in 2012 as a project of the men’s group, South Boundary Singers. Our mission is to help vocally talented young boys develop their musical and vocal skills, to be a part of a creative musical experience through teamwork, and to learn the joys and rewards of hard work and self-discipline.

In addition to formal concerts, the group performs at community and outreach service events such as nursing homes and festivals.
