Chor des Bayerischen Rundfunks (Bavarian Radio Chorus)

Venerated for its virtuosity, the Chor des Bayerischen Rundfunks has mesmerized all with its crisp perfection of the human voice. Named by Leonard Bernstein as his favourite chorus, this much recorded ensemble has performed under the baton of illustrious conductors and orchestras. The Chorus brings its special tonal homogeneity and stylistic versatility to Singapore in a repertoire covering sacred music and music from renaissance, baroque to the romanticism and the contemporary. Fresh from its 60th anniversary celebrations under the baton of much-praised Dutch conductor Peter Dijkstra, the chorus will imbue life into a musical canvas spanning the best of German and other European choral works in a special double-evening debut that promises sheer fluency and finesse. An irresistible palette of German lieders, baroque motets, romantic choral works a cappella and with piano, English ballads and contemporary masterworks for male and female chorus, mixed chorus and sound-full double chorus makes this a bountiful concert for all choral fans! 2 June, 8pm $80, $60, $40, $20 (Sat)3 June, 3pm $70, $50, $30, $20 (Sun)Victoria Concert Hall 100mins (with intermission)www.singaporeartsfest.com
