The Roxborough Male Chorus began in 1923. Its first director, W.C. Ames, and its first accompanist, William E. Tippet, created the singing group for men, who loved music and resided in and around the neighborhood.

“With glad and open hearts we meet you in our festival of song. Care and sorrow now be gone, Brothers in song, sing on! Brothers, sing on, sing on!”

Tariq "Black Thought" Trotter from the legendary The Roots crew came through our studio last week and visited with the Hip Hop Ensemble, ...who also performed for his One Book One Philadelphia event in the auditorium. What a great day!
