A piece of research by the EU claims there are 37 million choral singers in the Union.

That’s fairly meaningless.

What’s more interesting is where you find the highest concentration.

In the Baltic states? Germany? France?

No. It’s Austria in first place with 11 percent of the population engaged in choral singing. Second is the Netherlands with 10.7 percent and third Slovenia with 8.3%

At the bottom of the pile are Poland (2.3%), Spain (2.4%) and Denmark (2.6%).

Portugal was too low to be measured.
