Hailed as a musical treasure, the incomparable Wiener Sängerknaben has won more renown than any group of child musicians. Founded by Emperor Maximilian I in 1498, the famed Vienna Boys Choir continue to delight music-lovers six centuries later with their purity of tone, distinctive charm and diverse repertoire, encompassing Austrian folk songs and waltzes, Classical masterpieces, medieval chant and popular music.
Today, the choir consists of 100 choristers from 30 different nations between the ages of ten and fourteen, divided into four touring choirs. Choirmaster Bomi Kim will direct these timeless voices in November's performance of "Around the World in 80 Minutes---in the footsteps of Jules Verne."
This performance is sponsored by BRAVO! Professional Performing Arts at BYU, the university's concert series that hosts world-renowned guest artists from across the globe. Presented in partnership with the Covey Center for the Arts, the choir will also perform at the Covey Center for the Arts in Provo at 7:30 p.m., on Monday, Nov. 9.
