Roskilde Domkirkes Drengekor (Roskilde Cathedral Boys' Choir) was founded in 1987 and has grown into Denmark's largest boys' choir, with close to 70 singers led by conductor Egil Kolind. The choir performs at services in Roskilde Cathedral and gives around 35 concerts a year, ranging from in-house performances to international tours across the USA, China, New Zealand and, most recently, Italy.
