It performs at papal functions in the Sistine Chapel and in any other church in Rome where the Pope is officiating, including St. One of the oldest choirs in the world, it was constituted as the Pope's personal choir by Pope Sixtus IV (from whom both the choir and the chapel in which it performs take their names).
