Charité Chor Berlin

In the artist's words:

The Charité Chor Berlin is a young, ambitious chamber choir composed of students from various disciplines and young professionals. Their joy in singing together and high musical standards enable the ensemble to maintain a consistently high level of performance.
In 2013, Adrian Emans founded the choir out of a choir club at Charité University Medicine. Under his direction, the ensemble has made a name for itself in Berlin’s choral scene in recent years.

Concert tours have taken the choir to Greece, Austria, Estonia, and Latvia. In addition, the ensemble has performed in major German concert halls, including the Berlin Philharmonie, the Konzerthaus Berlin, the Friedrichstadt-Palast, the HCC Hannover, the Gewandhaus Leipzig, and the Musik- und Kongresshalle Lübeck.

The choir can look back on a series of competition successes: At the 2025 Berlin Chortreff, the ensemble competed in the category “Mixed Choirs with 32 or More Members,” won first prize, and advanced to the 2027 German Choir Competition in Leipzig. Previously, the choir achieved a “very good result” (4th place) in 2022 and a “good result” in 2017. At the 2025 German Choral Festival in Nuremberg, the choir won second prize in the “Contemporary Choral Music” category. At the International Choral Competition in Preveza (Greece) in 2019, the ensemble won a gold and a silver medal in two categories.

The Charité Choir’s repertoire includes classical choral literature from various eras; world premieres and choral-symphonic works are also regularly featured in its program.
