A private and non-profit organization, the choir is made up of boys aged from 10 to 14 and selected from the different parts of Austria. The group regularly performs in their own concert hall called MuTh and in the Hofburg chapel. 

This month of October, visitors in Vienna can experience one of the city's film festivals. It may not be as big as the Viennale but it's worth attending.
