but they might as well have been. They sang like angels. This evening I heard a performance of the American Boychoir from Princeton, NJ and they were wonderful. This group of 30+ 4th-8th graders presented their concert at Trinity English Lutheran Church, a fine old church in downtown Fort Wayne that proved to be a perfect venue. The choir opened with a Gregorian Chant called "Ave Maria Stella" and they stood in the two balconies on either side of the nave for this song. This created an amazing effect. At one point in the performance they were joined by the Fort Wayne Children's Choir and they made beautiful music together.
Their director told us that they have recently performed in a movie called BoyChoir staring Dustin Hoffman and Kathy Bates. Not sure when it's coming out but I am looking forward to seeing it. According to information in the program, it received rave reviews at the Toronto Film Festival.
