Petri-Kammerchor (Chamber Choir)

Founded: 2009 - Mülheim an der Ruhr, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany

The Petri-Kammerchor, consisting of 20 selected singers, emerged in 2009 from the vocal ensemble founded in 1989 and organizes many concerts, evening songs and church services.

Many treasures of the Western European church music tradition were and are brought to life in lively and intensive rehearsals. English church music from the Renaissance and Romantic periods forms its own focus, which is preferably performed in church services and evening songs.

The repertoire includes works by, among others: Cl. Janequin, T. Tallis, Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, O. Gibbons, Heinrich Schütz, Johann Hermann Schein, H. Purcell, George Frideric Handel, J.S. Bach, Felix Mendelssohn, Johannes Brahms, Max Reger, C.V. Stanford, Herbert Howells, Igor Stravinsky, S. Reda, D. Schnebel and M. Feldman.
