We have a simple philosophy, we all love to sing but we want to do it in a professional way without the rigid formality and structure of traditional male voice Choirs. We love to sing and perform a wide range of musical styles from pop and rock to classical standards. If it is good music we will sing it. We are looking for new singers to join our friendly new Choir, both experienced and beginners. Come along, experience something new and get excited!  less

This was after a long break, during which the Choir practiced singing in a remote manner. In order to celebrate the possibility of regular, normal rehearsing, two-day weekend choral workshops were carried out. This was very e...    less

Recorded live on Friday, March 17, 2013, at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Performed by the Primes Choir Ensemble of the Girl Choir of South Florida. Assistant Director: Jorge Valls, Accompanist: Gayle Giese. In the quiet misty morning, when the moon has gone to bed, When the sparrows stop their singing and the sky is clear and red, When the summer's ceased its gleaming, when the corn is past its prime, When adventure's lost its meaning, I'll be homeward bound in time. Bind me not to the pasture. Chain me not to the plow. Set me free to find my calling and I'll return to you somehow. If you find it's me you're missing, if you're hoping I'll return, To your thought I'll soon be list'ning; in the road I'll stop and turn. Then the wind will set me racing as my journey nears its end, And the path I'll be retracing when I'm homeward bound again. Bind me not to the pasture. Chain me not to the plow. Set...    less
