St. Florianer Sängerknaben

OPERAS

• Not only in opera productions of their own but also in "grand opera" roles written for boys, the St. Florian Boys' Choir is in demand.

• The boy singers have made numerous choral and soloist appearances, including great recent successes such as

• "Young Shepherd" in Tannhäuser (Alois Mühlbacher, conducted by Franz Welser-Möst, Vienna State Opera 2010)

• "Three Boys" in The Magic Flute (conducted by René Jacobs in Aix en Provence, Berlin, Paris and for a CD recording, 2009)

• "Yniold" in Pelleas et Melisande (Alois Mühlbacher, conducted by Christian Arming in Tokyo, 2010)
