According to contemporary sources, Emperor Maximilian I in 1498 established a court orchestra at Hofburg Palace in Vienna, including a choir which largely consisted of boys descending from Wilten in the County of Tyrol.
Martin Pleyer and Vinzenz Arnold are in charge of organizational matters.
The choir's repertoire includes a wide range, from sacred music to traditional alpine folk songs and opera.
During many concert tours, they have performed in Switzerland, Germany, Italy, France, Great Britain, Denmark, Romania, Israel and Japan.
