Integrative Kantorei
An integrative choir is a church music community made up of vocalists and instrumentalists. Vocalists and instrumentalists are organized under the same name and perform together. This corresponds to the understanding of the historical concept of the Kantorei.
The first approaches to integrative choir work can be found with Helmut Krüger , who in his work Small Choir - Very Large (1964) recommends the use of instruments for choir work and also singing and playing at the same time.
The name “Integrative Kantorei” came into being in the last years of the 20th century. The attribute “integrative” became necessary to distinguish it from the modern choirs , which usually only consist of singing voices and engage instrumentalists on a project-by-project basis.
In a broader sense, “integrative choir” can also mean the integration of people from marginalized groups in society.
In the spring of 2006, the model of the integrative choir was presented as part of a position paper on church music in the Evangelical Church in the Rhineland .
