Classical & serious music, Vocal & Choral Music
Bündner Singkreis
Comanderzentrum, Chur
The choir has been in existence for sixty years and has been under the musical direction of Daniela Brantschen since 2023. The current project with works by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy and César Franck will be performed in the Martinskirche Chur in November 2026.
The Bündner Singkreis is a large oratorio choir in Chur made up of singers of all ages from northern and central Graubünden. Some singers have been active for decades, others have only joined in recent years. The choir has set itself the goal of performing a large oratorio with orchestra and soloists in St. Martin's Church in Chur every two years. The choir has successfully achieved this for around sixty years. Daniela Brantschen has been the conductor of the Bündner Singkreis since 2023. The first project under her musical direction was the performance of "Stabat Mater" by Antonín Dvořák in 2024. Daniela Brantschen teaches the singers to train their voices with precisely guided exercises, to breathe consciously and to connect attentively and with each other in the choir. The joy of singing is not neglected!
We are currently rehearsing the following works, which will be performed in November 2026 in St. Martin's Church in Chur:
The Seven Last Words of Jesus by César Franck (1822-1890)
As the stag cries, Psalm 42 by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1809-1837)
The Bündner Singkreis is organized as an association. If you would like to sing with us, please register at the beginning of each project. Membership ends after the concerts, so no notice of termination is necessary. Participation in a work requires regular attendance at rehearsals.
