Artist Info
Role:PerformerBonner Kammerchor is a renowned classical music artist that has been captivating audiences with their exceptional performances for over 60 years. The choir was founded in 1957 by Hermann-Josef Rübben, a music teacher at the Bonn Beethoven Gymnasium, and has since grown to become one of the most respected choirs in Germany. The choir's early years were marked by a focus on sacred music, with performances of works by Bach, Handel, and Mozart. However, as the choir grew in size and reputation, they began to expand their repertoire to include secular works as well. Today, the Bonner Kammerchor is known for their versatility and ability to perform a wide range of musical styles with equal skill and passion. Over the years, the Bonner Kammerchor has performed at some of the most prestigious venues in Germany and around the world. They have been invited to perform at the Salzburg Festival, the Rheingau Musik Festival, and the Berliner Philharmonie, among others. The choir has also collaborated with many renowned conductors and orchestras, including the Berlin Philharmonic, the Vienna Philharmonic, and the London Symphony Orchestra. One of the highlights of the Bonner Kammerchor's career was their performance of Bach's St. Matthew Passion at the Thomaskirche in Leipzig in 2000. This performance was particularly significant because it was the first time that a non-Leipzig choir had been invited to perform this work in the church where Bach himself had served as cantor. The performance was a resounding success, and the choir received widespread acclaim for their interpretation of this masterpiece. In addition to their many performances, the Bonner Kammerchor has also received numerous awards and accolades over the years. In 1987, they were awarded the Robert Schumann Prize by the city of Zwickau in recognition of their outstanding contributions to the world of classical music. They have also been awarded the Rheinischer Kulturpreis and the Echo Klassik award, among others. Despite their many achievements, the Bonner Kammerchor remains committed to their mission of bringing the beauty and power of classical music to audiences around the world. They continue to perform regularly, both in Germany and abroad, and are always seeking new ways to push the boundaries of their art and inspire new generations of musicians and music lovers. In conclusion, the Bonner Kammerchor is a true icon of the classical music world, with a rich history of exceptional performances and a commitment to excellence that has earned them a place among the most respected choirs in the world. Their dedication to their craft and their passion for sharing the beauty of classical music with audiences around the world is an inspiration to us all, and we can only hope that they will continue to delight and inspire us for many years to come.More....
