Catholic choir opens to girls
Print Edition
ONE of Germany’s most famous Catholic boys’ choirs, the Regensburg Cathedral Choir, plans to establish a separate choral group for girls for the first time in its more than 1,000-year history.
“We are happy to welcome girls in the future,” choir director Christian Heiss said in a statement on June 15, adding that the so-called Regensburg Cathedral Sparrows still would be open only to boys and remain the No. 1 choir.
Girls can apply to the new choir from the beginning of the 2022-23 school year. They will also have to attend the high school that is connected to the choir.
The Regensburg choir was founded around AD 975 and is one of the oldest boys’ choirs in the world.
Choir members have toured the world, including trips to the Vatican, the United States, Canada, Poland and Japan.
