Christmas with the Vienna Boys Choir (FULL CONCERT), Holiday Music

[@WillCrump-e5x]

I was blessed many years ago to be friends with two of the Vienna Choir Boys. Terence and Lorin Wey, whose mother Peggy Wey-Ervin taught the younger boys vying for a place in the choir. Terry is now a counter-tenor and Lorin is a tenor. Sadly, their Mom passed away on Sept. 22, 2017. Terry was allowed a rare honor while in the Mozartchor. He was allowed to record 2 solo CDs: Born to Sing & O Holy Night.

[@johnlarson938]

I grew up listening to a Christmas LP from the Wienersängerknaben. Their singing is a fond memory for me. Nicole

Wunderbare Stimmen, stimmungsvolle Lieder!

[@michaelkrolikowski1431]

My mother would always play this during Christmas. They are so reverent!

[@JeffreyDavidM]

The soloist at the beginning...just wow! Angelic voice.

[@carinchristine9070]

YES! :)

[@roychien1943]

Yes, seraphic voice!

[@chikistoyreview]

Merry Christmas, Vienna Boys Choir!

[@justaguy6560]

I have this on DVD. Watch it every Christmas very beauitful voices and calming

[@anthonyseymour4651]

I was lucky to hear this choir on a visit to the new year concert. Their voices sound even better live.

[@hinlee4610]

This is one of my favourite Christmas movies.

[@allenjones3130]

Another outstanding choral group. The Choirboys wear uniforms that make them look like cadets in the old Imperial German Navy!

[@WillCrump-e5x]

The white crackerjack top with the navy blue pants is called their "Jubilee" uniform. When the boys graduate the choir, they are allowed to keep the cover (hat) as a souvenir of their time in the choir. Once their voices change and settle into their adult range, they can join the Chorus Vienensis, which is made up exclusively of former choirboys.

[@leannlundberg8926]

Angelic voices. What a great way to show case the songs as the boys are doing their Christmas festivities. (The costumed figure out to cause mischief is a Krampus - part of tradition.) Happy Holidays to everyone.

[@veronikathananan9]

Krampus is the holiday version and tricky companion of Santa Claus...

[@marieesler3004]

Beautiful. Angels on Earth

[@melflo4651]

So lovely voice!!!

[@jukes243]

[@fredogerald1475]

Bilder die auch Freude und Humor zu sehen geben gibts nicht so viele.Die unzähliche Stunden um musikalisch so weit zu kommen soll man diese Gruppe immerhin noch in Dank abnehmen.

Christmas as it always should be!!!!!

[@RonaldoBroca]

Weihnachten in Wien, erinnert mich: Schnee, Musik, Weihnachtsbäume , viele Süßigkeiten und gebacken und kandierten Äpfeln. Ich liebte die Jahre, die ich in der WSK verbrachte, zwischen 1963 und Anfang 1967 Schade, dass ich sehr wenig zu zeigen. es war alles in Brand meines Hauses zerstört. Viele vermissen all dies. Vielen Dank für Ihren Beitrag.

[@wskfan]

Wie schön, dass sich so viele Fans nicht daran halten, Aufnahmen von Konzerten der WSK offiziell nicht auf YT veröffentlichen zu dürfen...:) Es ist unmenschlich, Beiträge von Chorknaben, denen Gott die schöne Singstimme bekanntlich nur vorübergehend zugesteht, nicht für die Nachwelt zu "konservieren" !

[@francisheperi4180]

In 1995, the VBC still sounded great unlike their successors today. Nice sprinkling of German and all my favourite English carols and the best version of ''Silent Night'' with little horn embellishment. Playing this, this Christmas. Thanks.

[@kimmykimko]

I can't imagine the level of ......... These boys had to endure.

[@andymilsten9096]

This is amazing! I miss those days when people were like this, young German boys are so much more productive than American boys because of Europe’s music history!

[@pjemerson3166]

BS

[@andymilsten9096]

PJ Emerson What are you trying to say to me?

[@rudolfrojas]

I was once an American boy, and myself and my brothers and I were very productive, boy scouts, altar boys, choir, sports, languages, etc, rising to leaders of industry in the most powerful and industrious country on the earth. There are many, many American boys who are head and shoulders above the European children.

[@andymilsten9096]

Rudolfo Rojas I am so sorry if that hurt your feelings, I was just trying to say that Europe is where all the early music masters lived such as Vivaldi, Handel, Bach, Mozart Haydn, and Beethoven lived, and there are more orchestras and such over there that play on historical instruments, and it’s where you get to see their homes and all that as well! So I’m sorry if I wrote that a little hurt fully I didn’t mean to in any way, shape or form!

[@rudolfrojas]

@@andymilsten9096 No worries and thanks for your thoughtful response.

[@carolinewhite3435]

I'm Irish and this reminds me way too much of the bad old days in Ireland love the kids singing though

The boy mentioned in the text below is also on another WSK KZbin video. "The Yasuda Sisters and the Vienna Boys Choir" He is older but still singing alto. He is featured in the sushi eating scene. A long career: Sehr Wunderbar!!!!!!!

What is the name of the boy who sings the alto part of the Stills Nacht duett and also plays the wise man Balthazar. Any help will be greatly apreciated!!! Also this video has been issued in many different versions of quality and with edits. This presentation leaves out the Little Drummer Boy sequence. Thanks and Frohe Weihnacht!

[@sousafan100]

the drummer boy scene is also available on utube - just 'splice' it in after st nicholas walks up the stairs...

[@Kamelhaj]

What is the name of the song which starts at 28:30? Please and thank you!

Kamellhaj, Still still still weil's Kindlein schlafen will

Enjoyed the singing. Only criticism would have to be, the gross under exposure, making watching almost impossible in places. Well done boys, Merry Christmas.

In the description of the video it says that it was filmed in May 1995, but at the end of the video in the credits it says 2009 ... someone explain to me, please. Thanks

[@aasompong]

Most likely a digital re-release of the original.

[@dalelintner1025]

Prior to the start if CHRISTMAS WITH THE VIE BA BOYS CHOIR WHICH ATTRACTS A CERTAIN AUDIENCE THEY SHOW THE MIST VIOLENT MOVIE PREVIEW CALLED TULSA KING CONTRADICTORY IS WHAT THAT IS

[@dezangerman]

Strange the Vienna boys sing so many English Christmas songs ! When there are so many beautiful German ones.

[@JohnnyBGoode-q7n]

What is this about?

[@ClaudyArfaras]

Perfection indeed... Still can’t help to wonder where are the little girls? You know some sing quite lovely also as beautiful as any boy. Must be the American in me... But maybe something to think about....

[@markusmajurdjicroit9550]

Claudy TheArtist no girls in the WSK this is traditionally since hundreds of years

[@MartinvonTours11.11]

Boys' voices are different and more angelic than the girls. Boys won't sing with girls at that age for long anyway.

[@ClaudyArfaras]

Markus Majurdjic/Roit I know it’s a “tradition” that needs to stop and include girls. It’s never to soon to stop being sexist to little girls and more important to teach them the awful mistake of the past not to include them. Of course they can sing beautifully and will or would make a fabulous addition to any boys choir and far past time you did... Grow up!

[@markusmajurdjicroit9550]

Claudy TheArtist Claudy TheArtist in the States you can change your anyway not existing traditions but we're going to hold on our ones and like Leeta von Bülow answered to you also it's just a huge difference between the voices of boys and girls

[@ClaudyArfaras]

Leeta von Buelow Absolute and total nonsense! That’s not true and your are wrong to believe what you’ve been conditioned to think. No way a little girl can’t sing as beautifully as any boy... That’s an outrageous discrimination you and the many boys choirs of the world are purely conditioned to believe. Bull, nonsense and bogus! Little girls will make a beautiful and valuable addition to any boys choir and are able to sing just as lovely as any boy. Stop discriminating against girls and learn to include them and teach yourself you have been wrong all along...

[@effieinglish]

Notice the upsidedown cross in the beginning. Cobra Entertainment... A snake... Interesting.

Why those masks?

[@darrylweatherspoon1171]

I don't think it was necessary to paint the young boy's face black in representation of the black Magi .

[@fana406]

NAH NEXT

[@remmymills3453]

Whats with the devil garbage. Its about Christmas the birth of Christ !!!

[@SleepTights]

Look up the history of Krampus. In folklore, Krampus is a horned, anthropomorphic figure described as "half-goat, half-demon", who, during the Christmas season, punishes children who have misbehaved, in contrast with Saint Nicholas, who rewards the well-behaved with gifts. Krampus is one of the companions of Saint Nicholas in several regions including Austria, Bavaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Tyrol and parts of Northern Italy. The origin of the figure is unclear; some folklorists and anthropologists have postulated it as having pre-Christian origins. It is also to distenguish the balance between "Good and Evil" or in other words to frighten children to be good little Christians. The tradition goes way, way back.

[@praisegod3768]

Aha, that explains why, when I was the Czech Republic, a big, masked, creepy "creature" (some guy in a mask with horns) went around, scaring everyone and hitting them on the backside with a broom! It's probably part of the "watch out and do good" object lesson of the tradition celebration!

[@jbirdnelson3818]

The Sleep Tights Very well explained!

[@ericpennock6776]

Are you a brainless twit? Can't you read history?

[@sousafan100]

i like how st nicholas grabs the imp and tosses his broom into the fire - very cool...

[@StrongandWomanly]

What's with the stupid christmas video in the middle? Really relaxing. not.

[@56247]

Soryy but I fail to see a stupid Christmas video; what are you referring to?
