Boscombe Songster Brigade (Salvation Army Choir) was formed in 1906 and
has participated on a weekly basis ever since. Their mission is to present
the Gospel message in a clear and attractive way.
Boscombe Songsters currently perform a repertoire spanning a large range
of styles - these include contemporary Christian music, gospel, classical,
choral, and traditional hymns and music especially reproduced for them
by their Darren (to purchase music by Darren Bartlett click
here).
Currently this group consists of 54 members, all from many different
areas of employment including, information technology, design, commerce,
nursing, and teaching staff. Their ages range from mid-teens to 70+
and include individuals still in education and some retired personnel
who are enjoying their retirement and yet still have a keen interest
in being active within their place of worship.
All members are Salvationist
volunteers who are passionate about their singing and have a fervent
desire to communicate the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
