The Boys Choir of Harlem is a storied American choir with roots tracing back to 1968, when founder Walter J. Turnbull built a program that blended rigorous musical training with community outreach. Though the original group dissolved around 2007, its influence continues to resonate through alumni activities and ongoing Harlem-based initiatives. For decades, the choir represented a beacon of artistic excellence and social impact, earning the U.S. National Medal of Arts in 1996 for its contributions to the arts.
