THE CHOIR |
||
The versatility of the Frankfurter Kantorei allows - besides oratorial and a-cappella-works - special projects like the "Storm Clouds Cantata" by Arthur Benjamin from the Hitchcock movie "The man who knew too much" live and synch with the screening of the corresponding film sequence, the musical part in the official opening act of the International Motor Show 2015 with an arrangement of Ravel's "Bolero", the production of the audio books "Doktor Faustus“ by Thomas Mann and "Superpsalm" by Hermann Kretzschmar with the Hessischer Rundfunk or "The three penny opera" with the Ensemble Modern. For the concert program „In memoriam Max Reger“ commemorating the 100th anniversary of the composer's death the choir has been awarded "Best Concert Program 2016" by the German Association of Concert Choirs. Frequently the Frankfurter Kantorei is ambassador for the German and Frankfurt music scene, i. e. 1993 at the World Symposium on Choral Music in Vancouver, on a concert tour to Armenia in 2001, participating in the celebrations of 1700 years of the Armenian christianity and in the spring of 2009 performing the officical opening concert of the centennial celebrations of the city of Tel Aviv. Other concert tours took the Frankfurter Kantorei to the U.S., Canada, France, Italy, the Republic of South Africa, Turkey, Russia, Finland and Japan. |
