Munich Boys Choir in Guangzhou

Date: Aug 12 - 8 pm

Venue: Xinhai Concert Hall

The foundation of the Munich Boys Choir by the conductor Ralf Ludewig demonstrates how he rose to the challenge of realizing a long term dream he and many friends of music and culture in Munich have in common: a top level boys' choir whose very name epitomizes the rich variety of culture the Bavarian state capital continues to offer. In the past citizens and representatives of the City of Munich frequently approached the then Music Director of the Tolzer Knabenchor and announced their wish to see a new name in the music world, one that would signal to all just how success, quality and fame can be attributed to a boys' choir comprising Munich's own children the City of Munich has, after all, a child in its famous coat of arms. Inspired by these requests Ralf Ludewig decided to establish a choir of his own. Many boys were inspired by this idea of a new musical adventure and followed their long time choir leader, supporting him in forming a new choir that would be associated with music-making of the highest level.
