In November 1863, the “Schubertbund Teachers’ Choir” was founded by Franz Mair and renamed the “Vienna Schubertbund” in 1922. In 1935, the male-voice choir, which is still highly regarded today, gave a concert in Rome before Pope Pius IX with 500 singers. Renowned composers such as Richard Strauss, Wilhelm Kienzl and Franz Lehár have dedicated important works to the Wiener Schubertbund. The highlights of the choir’s activities are the “Schubertiads”, which take place every spring in the house where Franz Schubert was born.

As of November 2024, Alexander Riaño has been enriching the musical profile of the choir with his dynamic conducting, stylistic ideas and focus on sound quality.

Everyone treats each other with openness and attentiveness. This is one of the reasons why singing in this choir is so wonderful and heart-warming, regardless of differences.

Pure Voices is made up of 16 women who were singing together in various formations even before the ensemble was founded. They love listening to the voices of their colleagues and being in harmony with one another. At their performances, this trust and harmonious vocal interplay become not just audible, but also tangible, as they transmit their enthusiasm for the music directly to the audience.

Chorvereinigung Finanz
2025-12-21 18:00
“Chorvereinigung Finanz” was founded in 1971 by Walter Kabela at the former tax office for Vienna’s 6th, 7th and 15th districts. The occasion for this was the retirement of the head of the tax office. Several colleagues, who enjoyed singing, prepared a worthy farewell with the song “Feierabend”.
Ever since, more and more music-loving members have found their way to us. Directed by Martin J. Garand, our repertoire spans a wide spectrum from Renaissance and classical music to operettas and modern music. The choir particularly enjoys performing at social and church events.
