Knabenchor Hannover

Knabenchor Hannover

The Knabenchor Hanover was founded by Prof. Heinz Hennig in 1950 and was conducted by him until the end of 2001. Since 2002 the choir has been conducted by Prof. Jörg Breiding. The Knabenchor Hanover was among the first choirs to take an interest in historical performance practices and in doing so achieved a quality of musicianship that has since won it acclaim not just in Germany but internationally as well.
The ensemble has traditionally specialized in the vocal works of the seventeenth century composers, its main focus at first having been on the works of Heinrich Schütz. The choir’s five Schütz recordings under Heinz Henning’s baton produced between 1982 and 1999 set new standards for performances of this repertoire. Four of them received the French Critics Award and the “Sacred Choral Music 1648” was awarded with the Deutschen Schalplattenpreis.
World-class musicians such as Gustav Leonhardt, Ton Koopman and Christoph Eschenbach have all worked with the choir, as have such famous orchestras as the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra, the Academy of Ancient Music Berlin and countless German radio orchestras. Besides giving concerts and performing at festivals both in Germany and abroad, the Knabenchor Hanover also records regular and can frequently be heard on the radio. The choir also received the award for classical choral recording of the year at the 2006 ECHO Award for the recent, first publication worldwide of Andreas Hammerschmidt`s “Grant us Peace”. Concert tours have been taking the choir to Israel, Japan, Russia, South and Central America, the USA and South Africa.
