THE DISEASE

Since 1971, the Dresden Boys’ Choir has been enriching the rich Saxon choral tradition with its special, charming sound, and is one of the youngest boys’ choirs in Germany today.

The repertoire includes both sacred and secular vocal music from the 16th century to contemporary choral works. The main focus is on sacred vocal music from the 16th and 18th centuries, but the programmes often include choral works accompanied by orchestra.
