Multi-award winning music school, Drakensberg Boys Choir is searching for South African boys, between the ages of 9 -14, with great singing voices, to join the world’s best boy choir.
The Drakensberg Boys Choir is the only choir school on the African continent and a boarding school that uses choral music as a significant vehicle for holistic education.
The school is nestled in one of the world’s major heritage sites, the mighty Okhahlamba Mountain range, and provides, not only training and performances in choral, contemporary and pop singing but also African folklore music and choreographed movement.
The school offers boys the opportunity to experience a vibrant outdoor life with cycling, swimming and hiking, which is integral to the curriculum.
