Adventkonzerte der Wiener Sängerknaben

Your repertoire ranges from folk songs to the Viennese waltz to the most delicate art songs. The probably most famous boys' choir in the world has a long tradition: Since the thirteenth century, boys have been singing in the Vienna Burgkapelle. In 1498, Maximilian I moved his court, along with the chapel, to Vienna. Musicians such as Mozart, Salieri, and Bruckner worked at the Viennese court; Joseph Haydn, Michael Haydn, and Franz Schubert sang as boys in the court music chapel. Today, there are around 100 Viennese boys' choir members aged between 9 and 14 years, divided into four choirs. Together, the choirs give 300 concerts each year in front of almost half a million spectators around the world.
