Birmingham Boys Choir perform at Talladega NASCAR race

The Birmingham Boys Choir was recently invited to submit a video recording of their performance of the National Anthem to be played for the Ag-Pro 300 NASCAR race on April 23 at Talladega Superspeedway.

The boys in the choir enjoyed attending the race with their families as well as seeing and hearing themselves broadcast on the for all the race fans in attendance.

Birmingham Boys Choir is a non-profit organization that serves a 160-voice choir of young men from the ages of 8-18. Founded in the 1960’s, the BBC brought the tradition of young male voices together, a  practice that dates back over 900 years.

This premier singing group offers two annual concerts – a Spring  Concert and a Christmas Concert, along with several other collaborative performances throughout the  year.

Under the direction of Ken Berg, the Birmingham Boys Choir has performed all over the world, including Japan, United States, Vienna, Czech Republic, Costa Rica and Ireland.

The choir recently held open auditions for its 2021-22 season.
