"If music be the food of love, play on!" - William Shakespeare

Kammerchor der Kreuzkirche Chemnitz

Out of the chantry of the Kreuzkirche in Chemnitz, enthusiastic singers founded the Chamber Choir of the Kreuzkirche in 1991, in collaboration with their cantor Steffen Walther.

Next to their liturgical and choral-symphonic program, they cultivated performances of demanding a-cappella choral literature of both early and new music. Experimental projects with the Modersohn Sax Quartet enriched their choral work as well as the continuous collaboration with the Chemnitz Baroque Orchestra and Cappella Sagittariana.
The ensemble, comprised of approximately 25 singers, has performed in several cities in Germany and beyond in Finland and the Netherlands.

In 2002 their first CD was released by auris subtilis. 2010 saw the creation of “Ein Kind ist uns geboren” [For unto us a child is born] - a recording released by the same label comprised of Christmas choral music out of five centuries.
