Montserrat Boys Choir (Escolania de Montserrat) is divine. Barcelona, Spain.
Montserrat is home to one of the oldest boys’ choirs in Europe. Documents testify to the existence of a religious and music school in Montserrat as far back as the 14th century.
The Escolania de Montserrat now accompanies religious ceremonies and communal prayers in the basilica. All the choir members receive a high standard of musical training, along with human and intellectual education. The choir enjoys international fame and prestige, giving concert performances all over the world, as well as building up a large catalogue of recordings.
Over the course of its history, the school has produced a good number of choirmasters and musicians, as well as well-known composers and teachers. The Escolania also enables some of the monks at Montserrat to work in the field of composing, producing and teaching music.
It’s considered one of the most beautiful cities in Spain.

Unbelievable to think I was there. Visiting friends in Barcelona and we did a day trip and visited the Monastery. Walked in here, and the boys were in “street clothes,” rehearsing. The staff said “we’ll let our American friends in to look and listen. Stunningly beautiful place, built into the side of a mountain! We called them our “Spanish Angels.”
