Vienna Boys' Choir
Young Austrian ensemble
The Vienna Boys' Choir is a renowned Austrian choir composed of boys aged roughly ten to fourteen, founded in 1498 to sing for the imperial court chapel.
The choir performs classical and sacred music worldwide and has become synonymous with the tradition of treble-voice choral singing: We heard the Vienna Boys' Choir at Carnegie Hall.
