Print Friendly Page 
Escolanía de Nuestra Señora de los Desamparados Located in Valencia, Spain, La Escolanía de la Virgen, the Schola Cantorum of the Virgin Mary, was founded on 7 December,1958 on the initiative of the then Archbishop of Valencia, Monsignor Marcelino Olaechea by P. José Estellés. Their voices fill the air in the Real Basílica de la Virgen at 1 pm every day to celebrate the Eucharist or Holy Communion.

They are requested annually for their soloist voices to perform one of the verses of the Miserere by H. Eslava at the Seville Cathedral, together with the Seville Symphonic Orchestra, and particular mention must be made of their performances in Rome before Pope Paul VI, at the Royal Palace in Madrid, at the International Festival of Perelada and at the festival "Xacobeo 99" in Santiago de Compostela.

They have recorded the mystery play Misteri d'Elx both in its old version (commemorations of 1709) as well as the present version, plus two CDs. One CD is dedicated to the most important chants to the Virgen de los Desamparados and another CD contains a selection of the best Christmas carols.
