The Vienna Boys Choir | Strauss For Ever
Universally adored for its “pure and pristine sound” (San Francisco Chronicle), the legendary Vienna Boys Choir will sing a lively program celebrating the 200th birthday of one of Vienna’s most cherished native sons.
Johann Strauss Jr. was the grandfather of the Viennese waltz and polka styles that defined that city’s music for generations, and this choir has been singing choral renditions of his music since the 1920s! Come and hear classics like the Blue Danube waltz, Tales from the Vienna Woods, and a selection of rollicking polkas, all sung with spirit and finesse by these angelic young voices.
