Sacred Choral Music
Bach,j.s. / Vienna Boys Choir
The Vienna Boys' Choir, one of the world's oldest boys' choirs, maintains its status as a living tradition after more than 500 years. Haydn and Schubert both started their
musical careers there; Antonio Salieri was a member of the admissions jury. What is captivating about these recordings is both the clarity of textual and musical
declamation and a very special, authentic charm deriving from the slight Viennese accent. Performances by the Vienna Boys' Choir are not only a matter of perfect pronunciation and intonation, but also of a musical sensuality that is vital to interpretations of Haydn and Schubert, yet frequently overlooked.
