Balthasar Neumann Choir

Formed in Freiburg in 1991 by Thomas Hengelbrock, the Balthasar Neumann Choir is defined by a deep passion for music, the highest artistic quality and an irrepressible joy in singing. With great success, the vocal ensemble repeatedly sets out on musical treasure hunts, surprises with spectacular interpretations, and creates magical moments for an international audience.

Our singers, all of whom are also active as soloists, come together from all over the world to blend their voices into the unique sound of the Balthasar Neumann Choir. Intensive rehearsals and a profound examination of compositions and their creators are just as important as living, eating and travelling together to the various residences in creating the unique quality of our choir, in which each singer can contribute and develop individually.
