Vokalensemble amarcord

Description

Christmas
What would Christmas be without music? And what if the most beautiful Christmas carols sounded completely different?
With amarcord, one of the most renowned vocal ensembles in the world comes to us. In their Christmas program, the Leipzig quintet takes the audience on a musical journey around the globe: Christmas songs from various countries and continents meet sophisticated close-harmony arrangements, jazzy rhythms, and surprising musical twists.
Five voices – that's all it takes. Sometimes warm and intimate, sometimes spirited and with a wink, the singers create an extraordinarily colorful sound. Familiar melodies gain new facets, unknown songs tell of other Christmas traditions – and suddenly, Christmas sounds completely new.
amarcord was founded in 1992 by former members of the Leipzig Thomanerchor and is now one of the internationally leading vocal ensembles. In numerous concerts in more than 50 countries, the five singers have delighted their audiences. Their repertoire ranges from medieval music and Renaissance to Romantic and contemporary music, as well as folk songs, jazz, and pop.
Numerous international awards underline their exceptional musical quality. In 2026, amarcord was again awarded the International Classical Music Award (ICMA). Among other awards, they have received two ECHO Klassik prizes and many other international honors.
"Christmas" with amarcord is a concert for everyone looking forward to Christmas – for familiar sounds, new discoveries, festive moments, and a bit of musical surprise.
An evening to listen, enjoy, and get into the Christmas spirit.
