Poker-faced choirboys bring down the house

This must be one of the most remarkable performances we have ever seen. Two boys from The Catalunia Boyโ€™s Choir sing a classical song appropriately entitled โ€œThe Meowโ€ using only feline vocals. You really must see this to believe it. During the entire song, you can only hear one single word: MEOW! But somehow it does not get at all boring.,

 

The choir is about to perform a piece written in the 18th century called โ€œhumorousย duetย for two catsโ€ (โ€œDuetto buffo di due gattiโ€ in the original Italian.) We wonder whether the cats are meant to have Italian accents?

The boys are from โ€œLes Petits Chanteurs a la Croix de Bois (PCCB)โ€ in Paris, which is, apparently, a fairly well-known boys choir in France. Well, now itโ€™s a very well-known choir!

The โ€œlyricsโ€ consist entirely of the repeated word โ€œmiauโ€ (โ€œmeowโ€) and by the time this beautiful piece has played, you will be fluent in cat-speak, and for those of you that already are, youโ€™ll appreciate the nuance even more. You might even pick up a few new words to impress your cat.

It is quite surprising to hear these young boys present this classical song in such a professional way, they not only deliver the song with amazing clarity and style, but they are also able to keep a straight face.
