Salvation Army Songsters
Boscombe
Songster Brigade 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.
The Songsters currently perform a repertoire spanning a large range
of styles - these include contemporary Christian music, gospel,
classical, choral, and traditional hymns.
Currently this group consists of approximately 60 members, all
from many different areas of employment including, information
technology, design, commerce, nursing and teaching staff. Their
ages range from early teens to 80+ 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.
The Songsters undertook a tour of Canada in 2007, focusing on
the Ontario region under the name 'The Promise'. To read our

Promise' to coincide with the tour. Simply email
