The Vienna Boys' Choir, a Viennese musical institution since 1498 and an important Austrian cultural symbol, will present their Essen Christmas concert. The boys, aged 10 to 14, will perform traditional songs ("Tochter Zion"), international classics ("Hark! The Herald Angels Sing"), pieces from Britten's "A Ceremony of Carols," and Saint-Saëns' French Christmas oratorio. Austrian gems like Joseph Haydn's choral pieces, "Silent Night," and a South Tyrolean yodel will also be featured. The Vienna Boys' Choir performs together with the ensemble Les Essences.
