The “Choralschola der Wiener Hofburgkapelle” exclusively consists of former members of the “Wiener Sängerknaben”. Since 1952 the ensemble has been singing the Gregorian chants at the Sunday services in the Wiener Hofburgkapelle.

In search of adequate contemporary interpretation, the ensemble also relies on the scientific results of the musicological and historical research concerning the tradition of Gregorian music.

Nata dallo scioglimento di due complessi orchestrali berlinesi nel 1882, l'orchestra iniziò una brillante attività concertistica sotto la guida di Franz Wüllner.

Con Nikisch, i Berliner affrontarono...
