I was a member of the Savio's, Saint Teresa's Boy's Choir for most of my grade school years. The following pages document the choir's accomplishments through restored choir recordings, photos, and memorabilia. Please leave a choir message on the Guest Book page; I'd love to hear your favorite Savio story.

In 2002, I began preparation for this web site, one of the goals I set for myself, was to document every band I played with as best I could. As I dug back in time, I came across a much worn 33 RPM record of "The Spirit of Christmas" recorded by the Savios, St. Teresa's Boy's Choir in 1962. I thought, why wouldn't this fine musical entity qualify for a place on
my music web site?

The recording restoration lead to a great choir reunion at the Blackthorn Pub on Seneca St.
in South Buffalo, on December 12th, 2002. A Buffalo News article, a radio interview and
good old fashion word of mouth got the word out that this much loved choir was to
be heard from again. The choir's director, Monsignor Leo McCarthy has restored
five more choir CDs that are available by contacting him directly at: St. Joseph's
Church, 303 East Main St. Batavia, NY 14020. The Spirit of Christmas can be
ordered through our contact page, and also at The Tara Gift Shop on Abbott Road in South
Buffalo.
