Vienna Boys Choir: Christmas Concert

About the Event

The Vienna Boys' Choir is an institution in music history and looks back on a tradition spanning more than 500 years. From the very beginning, they have served as musical ambassadors: as early as the 15th century, the first choirboys accompanied Emperor Maximilian I to imperial diets.
Today, the Vienna Boys' Choir performs on Sundays with members of the Vienna Philharmonic and the Vienna State Opera Men's Choir in the Hofburg Chapel in Vienna. They can often be heard at major orchestral concerts, under conductors such as Joana Mallwitz, Zubin Mehta, Riccardo Muti, Christian Thielemann, Franz Welser‐Möst, and Simone Young. Highlights include performances at the Salzburg Festival and the Vienna Philharmonic's New Year's Concert.
The Vienna Boys' Choir is one of the few ensembles whose fame spans the globe. They regularly go on concert tours and delight audiences around the world with their perfect, crystal‐clear voices. The choir has received numerous prizes and awards, including two coveted Grammys – the “Oscars of music.”
In their Christmas concert, the Vienna Boys' Choir will perform classical works as well as Advent and Christmas carols.
