Come and spend an evening enthralled by the mellifluous voices of The Little Singers of Monaco. These boys will be rendering a wide repertoire of music that stretches from the ancient to the modern and includes the sacred and the profane. Listen out for works by Bach, Mozart and even Andrew Lloyd Webber.

Based at the Monaco Cathedral, the 31 strong boys’ choir led by Mr Pierre Debat is internationally celebrated for their musical sensitivity and rich tradition carried from the reign of Prince Antoine I in the early eighteenth century, when an ensemble of children's voices sang the liturgies in the Palatine Chapel.

Since its foundation in 1974, the Choir has been supported by the Royal Family and Government of Monaco. Under the royal patronage of H.S.H. Prince Albert II, the Choir performs at concerts throughout the world, promoting Monegasque culture and tradition.

Some of the countries the Choir has performed in include Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Egypt, Finland, France, Germany, Russia, South Africa, South Korea, Sweden, Taiwan, UK, USA and Vatican City.

The Choir also participates in performances of the Monte Carlo Opera, and sings regularly with the Monte Carlo Philharmonic, working with world-renowned musicians.

As part of its social mission, the Choir has performed at numerous charity concerts for hospitals, orphanages and schools throughout the world. As part of its 6th Asian tour, the Choir will be performing in Singapore at the Cathedral of the Good Shepherd in aid of the Cathedral Restoration Fund.
