Education
The choir currently consists of about 150 members, the youngest of which are about 6 years old. Following the change of voice, the boys can join the male voices and stay in the choir. The "concert choir" of the Wilten Boys' Choir is a special division of the Tiroler Landeskonservatorium.
Since 1991, Johannes Stecher is the choir's art director. Martin Pleyer and Vinzenz Arnold are in charge of organizational matters.
