St. John Cathedral (Milwaukee) tour of Austria

The choir of the Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, toured Austria in late June.

The group sang for Mass at the Salzburg Cathedral and performed concerts in the Peterskirche and the Capuchin Church, both in Vienna. In addition to performing formal concerts, they sang informally at Melk Abbey and the palace in Eisenstaedt. A varied program with emphasis on lesser-performed composers and American spirituals was presented.

The choir was directed by Michael Batcho, director of music, and accompanied by Andrew Kreigh, organist.
