​

...and the only of its kind in the United States!
I don't know if I'm
good at singing!
THIS IS THE BEST PLACE TO START!
Even if your son hasn't sung before, our audition process merely looks for potential. We ask boys to sing a familiar song and sing back single notes played on a piano. That's it!
​
Our rehearsals take the boys from their natural starting place and train them to be members of a world-class choir.
Saint Paul's Choir School offers 655 minutes of choral practice each week, including five sung Masses and nine rehearsals. Training takes place at the school during and just after the school day.
"The singing is amazing. I couldn't sing when I came to this school. When you come to this school, you're trained. You go in and you think 'Oh my gosh, I'm gonna fail, I'm gonna be the worst at singing, I've never done this before in my life.' But when you go and you're a pre-chorister, you learn all the music. You learn what to do, and so then once you get into the choir, it feels natural."
