The Official Channel for Only Boys Aloud.
Only Boys Aloud is facilitated by The Aloud Charity, and is a free, non-audition group made up from young singers from across Wales.
Only Boys Aloud was born from a desire to encourage young Welsh men to be ambitious for their future and equipped with the life skills to fulfil their potential. OBA currently comprises 140 boys across 11 choirs, who meet weekly during term time at locations across Wales. Open to any boy between the ages of 11-19, there is no audition and no fee. The only project of its kind in Wales, open access is a key part of the OBA ethos and the choirs operate in some of the most deprived areas of country.

Anfonaf Angel - あなたに天使を - Only Boys Aloud
Tim getting 4 choirs together in perfect harmony is a wonder of the modern age. He deserves much more recognition than he gets.
Tim has done such an amazing job to have 4 choirs of all ages (not just these 3 amazing ones) to be able to all sing together. That is a massive feat.
Stunning. Barb from New Zealand.
I have the cd first put out. This gives me cold shivers! Stunning. Barb from New Zealand.
Love it
Well done.

So Amazing.
Love to hear gerry Marsden singing this song beautiful
It was composed by Robat Arwyn
very well done a pleasure to listen to
Truly stunning voices. 👏
I get a lump in my throat listening to this. Thank you.
The beauty and power of singing is so in evidence...takes my breath away! Wonderful arrangement!!
OMG you guys are just AWESOME!! Well done!!
Thank you to all The Lads "wonderfull makes me cry !" My son was in there at this time n i loved hearing him practice feel favourd our Land Wales our place planet Earth ❤
I am so proud! And I'm not even Welsh ))
Have you reached out to Simon Cowell and the other judges on BGT? Good luck!
Music heals our soul,heart and mind
Amen to that! Music is gods lift for our spirit
Tom Hier's solo rendition, self-accompanied on piano, led me here.....
That was amazing! As a rule all their soloist are impressive, but the last lad was really special.
Beautiful. Beautifully done. Thank you!
Beautiful ❤❤
I think the 3rd to the last soloist had soul when he sang his lines.
I hate when performers feel the need to swallow the mic. Males audio engineers go nuts!!
Ive donated.€100. I trust these people. I know im lucky to be able to afford it, but come on folks. Join me! This is a fabulous organisation. organisation! Ive met Tim and some of the boys. They are truly fantastic 😊
I wonder if any of the choir are still singing. Especially the two magnificent solo singers. I would love to see them live.
As long as the focus remains only on the boys. It is more than a choir. It is very important discipline and responsibility training for young men. The girls and girls/boys choirs are a distraction and need to be their own distinctly separate thing.
I'm sure the trustees will have pursued this already but have no corporates with strong links to Wales made significant gifts/donations to the charity? Association with this truly worthwhile organisation would surely represent excellent publicity for any such business? Even small businesses, if recruited in sufficient numbers, could help boost funds.
Hello @williamevans9426. Thanks for your question. We do (and have over the years) work with a varied range of businesses and funders who provide grants to support our work, but we're always looking for more connections. As a charity we need to fundraise over half a million pounds every year to deliver our Aloud choirs for free to our participants. We are definitely always interested in partnerships and sponsorship opportunities with businesses, so if there are any out there who are interested in working together then please get in touch. :)
@@OnlyBoysAloud I presumed you'd explored this obvious (!) route. Unfortunately, I am temporarily unable to offer any personal support as I am currently 'unwaged' but I wish you all the very best, having grown up in the Ogmore Valley myself and having derived much pleasure from singing in choirs over the years.
The problem with this appeal is that it asks for money, but nothing is broken down to explain how 150.000 are going to be spent. Yes, of course the organization needs money, it cannot run on nothing, but there is no information on any expenditure. Even if you go to the website, it says that the organization is struggling (like anyone else) and that's about it - the rest is a heart-string-pull through boys' stories... For the sake of these boys I hope you don't shut down, but you can't ask for that amount of money and not be transparent about it - those days are long gone.
Hi @cakimiric5034. Thanks for your comment, I hope this helps to explain. Every year, the Aloud Charity raises over half a million pounds to provide free opportunities for young people of secondary school age across Wales. This money pays our talented, professional choir leaders, our small team of committed staff and covers our costs - such as hire fees for venues, expenses to pay for concerts and performance opportunities, and the infrastructure we need for our work such as music tracks and equipment. It keeps our Only Boys Aloud choirs free, ensuring no financial burden is placed on already struggling families who want their children to participate. However, this year, we have struggled to raise the entirety of the money we need to operate for various reasons, including the challenging climate we all find ourselves in and cuts to arts investment across the board which are affecting everyone. For the first time ever, we are asking our supporters, participants and the public to help us raise the £150,000 we need to ensure we can keep going while we work closely with our board and funders on what the future looks like. The money will pay our core staff who manage all elements of our provision, our freelance choir leaders and venues for weekly Only Boys Aloud rehearsals, the equipment and musical arrangements needed, and costs associated with us putting on or participating in events. In simple terms, it will ensure we exist while we get our long-term funding strategy in place. We are confident we can and will do this through our ongoing work with trusts and foundations, the Arts Council of Wales and private donations, however at this moment in time, we do not have the cash in place to keep going and need your support as a result. Thank you!
@@OnlyBoysAloud So a statement like this needs to be posted officially on your website, and not here in the comment section where it'll be lost to the wider public. Wish you all the best in raising the money! Good luck!
Honest question: in the beginnings in 2010 and afterwards, how did Tim keep everything running smoothly along, and why isn't he involved anymore ?
Hello @pfoetel-xd1zg. Thanks for your question. Tim is, and always will be, our Founder. We are so grateful for everything he did when he formed Only Boys Aloud in 2010. Tim works as the Music Director at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama in Cardiff, who we have a great working relationship with. In fact, our Cardiff OBA choir rehearse there every week :) Tim is a supporter of our work and is incredibly passionate about supporting young people through singing. He's doing well and we'll always be grateful for his support.
@@OnlyBoysAloud Thanks for your honest reply. Obviously, Tim can be proud of what he achieved in 2010 and the career ladder he has climbed since then which then leads me to my next question: as "HIS BABY" is in a difficult situation, can't he pull a few strings upstairs and ask the local politicians, businesses etc. for helping to keep your world famous choir promoting Wales for a longer period of time ? I mean, you are THE perfect advertisement for Wales and the Welsh music choirs as a whole.
Excellent! A pity no mention of the soloists' name...
Excellent
Beautiful job boys! Absolutely beautiful. Each of you has such a great sound and I’m listening on repeat. This is what heaven must sound like! ❤
Sobbing-sobbing beautiful! A pity there are no credits for the conductor and soloists.
Fantastic Diolch
Sometimes i belive God uses music to reach peoples hearts where words alone are unable.
I love the old Hymns we sang in church when I was growing up but the church has pushed them aside for modern music. Many people were saved by those hymns. I was one of them.
Exactly
Fantastic voices. How proud their families must be. Especially the two solo singers. I hope they continue to sing.
The future Johns of Miss Saigon ❤️
Such beauty in such an ugly world….
Give me chills well done 👏👏
Amazing 👏👏👏
Are bangs back?
The enjoyment shows in the lads faces. Brilliant
I'd be nice if they'd put an English translation of the Welsh in the information. Beautiful music none the less
Great performance! 💜
Mesmerising
Played this at my dad's funeral everybody had trouble holding their emotions
Beautiful !!! as before !xx
