With a 1500-year history, the Sistine Chapel Choir is the oldest and most respected active choir in the world
today. Officially known as the Cappella Musicale Pontificia Sistina, part of the Choir’s significance is due to its
endurance through several centuries, including the Renaissance, which was a fundamental period for the

Choir as it found its “theatre” in the Sistine Chapel. Along with the Chapel’s testament to historical beauty
with all its frescoes, the Sistine Chapel provides distinctive acoustics that have influenced the Choir’s
renowned musical repertoire, one that strikes a perfect balance between tradition and originality. In addition
to the Sistine Chapel Choir’s cultural legacy, it plays an active part during the papal celebrations in St Peter’s
Basilica and in the Sistine Chapel itself.
