History carries
a great deal of weight with the choir, there is a Boys Choir Sound,
a Viennese style
it's part of a continuing tradition. Franz Schubert
was once a member of the choir. The group was established by the Hapsburg
Emperor Maximilian I, one century before Shakespeare was writing some
of his finest plays. This choir dates to the discovery of America when
Columbus was on his third voyage to the New World in 1498.
