Vienna Boys at Wiener Hofmusikkappelle or Malat?

Hi! we are thinking between going to the Wiener Hofmusikkapelle (the Vienna Boys%26#39; Choir are supposed to be included in the program too) and going to hear Malat-Schrammeln %26amp; Gaste at Lehár Schlössl (Schikaneder Schlössl). Which would be more enjoyable and give a unique Viennese experience? Thanks a LOT!

By the way, this is the program for the Wiener Hofmusikkiapelle:

Riccardo Muti, Dirigent

Julia Kleiter, Sopran

Michaela Selinger, Alt

Herbert Lippert, Tenor

Jörg Schneider, Tenor

Vito Priante, Bass

Program:

• Luigi Maria Cherubini

Kantate auf den Tod Haydns

%26quot;Ave Maria%26quot;

%26quot;Graduale o salutaris%26quot;

Regina coeli

• Joseph Haydn

Messe B - Dur, Hob. XXII:14 (%26quot;Harmoniemesse%26quot;)

Cycle:

Das Goldene Musikvereinsabonnement II

Organizer:

Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Wien

These are two completely different offerings.

Malat -Schrammeln- name of a group of musicians - playing Schramml music -a group of violins, form of clarinet, double bass guitar and a vienna button Harmonica ( a form of accordion )

The music probably best described as viennese folk music- unique sound -named from the famed composers the Schrammel brothers-

Very popular music in Vienna a century ago - still liked by many .

The Boys Choir with Muti.

I assume that you refer to the concert at the Musikverein on November 23 and 24th.

This is an annual event featuring the Chapel Imperial - Boys Choir, members of the chorus at the State Opera and some members of the Vienna Philharmonic.

Both good choices-

Only you know your best music interests.

Unique to Vienna- probably the Schrammeln in my opinion.
