INFORMATION

The Chor zur Welt is looking for people with previous singing experience and a love for movement from autumn 2025

The Chor zur Welt brings together people and songs from all regions of the world. The 60 or so amateur singers perform music of other cultures in a variety of languages. Under the direction of Jörg Mall, they concentrate on songs from the singers’ countries of origin in the »One World« programme. The second concert, »Sounds of Silence«, focuses on the themes of endings and new beginnings, with choreography accompanying the music.
