Vienna Boys Choir Holiday Program
Saturday, December 12, 2pm, NEC’s Jordan Hall
We cannot promise that the choir coming to Boston for this holiday program will feature future musical giants—Franz Schubert is an alum—but it will feature the angelic voices that have charmed audiences since 1498. Ring in the holiday season with the Vienna Boys Choir—voices of pure silver and gold!
“… a superb musical ensemble … [with] clarion sound.”
—The Salt Lake Tribune
