Could a trip to Vienna be complete without an afternoon concert by the Vienna Boys Choir? I think not. And after having listened to them sing...I definitely think not. They are great. At first the conductor let the boys have a bit of fun...they got to sing silly folk songs, make silly noises, and of course, to poke fun at one another. From there, the concert only gets better and better... (Oh and for the peeps back home, I should mention there is an American on the choir right now. A boy from Ohio!)
Taken during the intermission. I was actually trying not to be a complete tourist by flashing the camera all over the room. The result? Less than perfect pictures, but hey, you get the point. Oh and the room was incredible. As you can see...completely fitting the mood of the choir.
Final bows. For the second half of the concert, the boys are joined by an orchestra and older (past) members of the choir who are often asked to join in, even though clearly their voices have deepened considerably!
