German Choir tradition in Central London
The choir was founded in 2009 at the German Christuskirche in London. Currently the full choir consists of around forty singers from different nations who share a common interest in music as well as the German language and culture.
The focus of our rehearsals is on expression, language and historically appropriate musical interpretation. The repertoire is predominantly German music, but the Choir also gets involved in modern projects, such as the performance of XXX Scharnhorst at the Thames Festival in 2012. The musical director of the German Choir is Barbara Höfling. In April 2013, the choir was invited to sing the Evensong at Westminster Abbey, with works from Schütz, Bach and Distler.
