Il programma nel dettaglio

The world-famous Vienna Boys’ Choir has been the benchmark for chorist excellence for more than 500 years – and now you can see them live in what is one of the ultimate Viennese experiences. This pass is just the ticket to see the boys, accompanied by the Camerata Schulz Orchestra, sing works by Mozart, Strauss and Haydn at the MuTH.

When Emperor Maximilian I decreed in 1498 that there were to be six boys among his court musicians, he had unwittingly laid the foundations for the Wiener Sängerknaben (Vienna Boys' Choir). Today, more than 500 years later, the Wiener Sängerknaben continues to sing Sunday services in the imperial chapel. They are divided into four separate groups that travel the world. The role of the Choir was to provide musical accompaniment to the church mass.

Vienna’s new concert venue, the MuTh, was built for the choir and inaugurated in 2012. The concert hall is located in a part of the Augarten used in the 18th century for imperial summer operas. Right next is the baroque Palais Augarten where the members of the choir live, study and rehearse. This provides a unique ensemble of Baroque structures and modern architecture. The concert hall can seat 400 guests.
