Appearances

In addition to concerts in the regional environment and in Germany (e.g. 2009 and 2011 at the “Night of Churches” in Berlin), the ensemble has given international concerts, especially in Spain and Italy: at the “Concordia Vocis” festival in Sardinia, in Salamanca Borja, Tolosa (where it won second prize in the professional vocal group category), Fano and Port Torres at the “Voci d'Europa” festival. In 2019 the ensemble traveled to Missoula, Montana, USA at the invitation of the International Choral Festival.

Sound carrier

In 2010, the sextet, in cooperation with the Saarländischer Rundfunk (SR), recorded the first sound carrier "Between Heaven and Earth", which was published by the music label Rondeau Production . The recording received the Excellentia Award from the Luxembourg trade journal Pizzicato .

Four years later, the second album “Lost in Transition” was produced under comparable conditions: with the support of SR and Rondeau as a record company. The album was nominated in autumn 2014 by the “Chor” jury for the German Record Critics' Prize.
