Prince Albert of Monaco, and through the generous support of the Mon\u00e9gasque government, the choir donates its time and talents to concerts organized on behalf of humanitarian associations throughout the world.<\/p>\n<p>The award-winning ensemble \u2013 under the direction of Pierre Debat &#8211; was founded in 1974 by Prince Rainier III and comprises more than 30 angelic voices. Created to showcase the Principality\u2019s historic association with culture and the performing arts, the official choir of the Monaco Cathedral is composed of talented singers aged between eight to 18 years, who have passed rigorous examinations before being admitted into the prestigious group.\u00a0 They traditionally embark on a spring tour of Europe and a summer tour to more far-flung destinations. The choir, renowned for their unusual repertoire of works written for children, has visited more than 40 countries around the world and performs an average of 40 concerts a year.<\/p>\n<p>Their musical repertoire includes sacred musical works by Charpentier, Bach, Mozart, Mendelssohn, Faur\u00e9 and Franck; Mon\u00e9gasque folk songs; English-language songs as well as patriotic American songs, some of which they performed live on NBC\u2019s The Today Show during a past visit.<\/p>\n<p>On previous U.S. tours, the choir has appeared at Yankee Stadium, in Bryant Park and St. Bartholomew\u2019sChurch in New York City, as well as on stage at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. and Palm Beach\u2019s Kravis Center.<\/p>\n<p>For information, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/monacoconsulate.populr.me\/monacoboyschoir\">http:\/\/monacoconsulate.populr.me\/monacoboyschoir<\/a>or contact the Consulate General of Monaco in New York on (212) 286 0500 or <a href=\"mailto:info@monaco-consulate.com\">info@monaco-consulate.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a9 Palais Princier<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW YORK (June 16, 2014) \u2013 The acclaimed boys choir of the Principality, formerly known as The Little Singers of Monaco (Les Petits Chanteurs de Monaco), will kick off their summer tour of the USA\u2019s east coast &#8211;
