The Augsburger Domsingknaben, translating to the Augsburg Cathedral Choir Boys, is a renowned boys' choir with a rich musical history dating back to the 15th century. Based in Augsburg, Bavaria, this choir is celebrated for its dedication to the choral music tradition, with a repertoire that encompasses a broad range of ecclesiastical works. The boys who make up the choir are meticulously trained not only in musicianship but also in a comprehensive educational program that ensures a rounded formation.

Over the years, the Augsburger Domsingknaben have garnered attention for their pristine performances and recordings of classical masterpieces. Their discography reflects a focus on both sacred and secular works, with recent releases such as "Bach 333: 4-Part Chorales (Vol. 1)" showcasing their proficiency in the intricate compositions of Johann Sebastian Bach. The choir's rendition of Gustav Mahler's "Symphony No. 3 in D Minor" demonstrates their versatility and ability to collaborate in large-scale symphonic productions. Their inclusion in the festive compilation "Stimmungsvolle weihnachts-klassik, vol. 5," and the serene collection "Ave Maria, Vol. 8," highlight the choir's adeptness at conveying the spirit of the season through music. Further solidifying their reputation are well-received renditions of classical liturgical music by Joseph Haydn and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, notably in releases like "Haydn: 3 Masses" and "Haydn, Mozart: Grosse Orgelmesse/Te Deum," which underscore their deep connection to the historical music of the Catholic liturgy.
