The Tiples de Santo Domingo is an all-boy vocal group established in 1587 by Fr. Pedro Bolaños, O.P., and is currently the oldest existing choral group in Asia. The word “tiple” in Spanish means the soprano voice of a boy. When members reach the age of puberty, their voices change either to a tenor or a bass. The boys range from 8 years old to 14 and sometimes a little bit older. The group was eventually maintained to sing for the annual celebration of the Feast of Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary of La Naval de Manila held in October. |
