STAGE
Founded in 1071, the St. Florian Boys' Choir boasts an internationally acclaimed tradition. In the old days it was responsible for providing church music for the Convent of St. Florian in Austria and in next week's Beijing concert, the boys will warm up with Handel, Franck and Durufle before moving onto the classics, Rodgers' Edelweiss and Strauss' The Blue Danube.
More music from "the waltz king" will highlight the second part of the show, including arias from his opera Die Fledermaus, as well as pieces from Mozart's Die Zauberflote and folk songs.
