The Boise Chordsmen is a select performance barbershop chorus singing four-part vocal harmony to produce a truly delightful and entertaining musical experience for all ages.

The Boise Chordsmen were honored to be asked to sing “The Boise Song” in the House Chamber at the State Capitol in honor of Idaho Day on March 4, 2024.

We are honored to receive the Mayor’s Award For Excellence in Arts and History for 2023! This award comes in recognition of the Idaho Youth Barbershop Festival contributions to local arts and education.


Here is what people have been saying about our latest performances!

I know no one in the chorus, and have zero connection to the gruop, but I REALLY look forward to all the concerts! I love barbershop harmony, and always loved all 3 of the performances I attended (since 1 year ago). Like other reviews, I thought the first half was a little awkward as far as the reading and acting, but it was fine. The singing was great, as always! Looking forward to the next show! Thank you!

Boise Chordsmen Christmas Concert

The Santa's Elves concept was clever and the storyline engaging but the acting performance could have been more polished. The various quartets and entire group musical performances were very engaging. We recognize many faces from previous years' performances, which tells me this is a dedicated group of singers. Plus there are some new, younger participants which bodes well for carrying on the traditions of this group.

Christmas Concert

We were not very fond of the first half of the show, it was really hard to understand the speaking parts and was very awkward at times as they fumbled through their speech pages. Should have been more focused on singing.
The second hal of the show was GREAT! We brought several people new to the group and hope they enjoyed it, we kept apologizing for the first half knowing that is not the usual Chordsmen show

Christmas letters

First half was entertaining and second half inspiring. Paine suggestions: A little more heat would have been nice. It was difficult to fully enjoy the show due to being cold. Also, the hooting during applause was off putting. We are in a place of worship not a high school gym.
