Acoustic Chamber Choir

"Rarely does a passion seem as much a matter of the heart as here" was the headline in the Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung in 2023 about a concert by the chamber choir Acustico. The program included Bach's St. Matthew Passion, which the choir performed with its orchestra, founded two years earlier, during the Corona pandemic. The young choir was founded in 2013 by the conductor Julian Hauptmann and five singers. The first guest performance in the NDR broadcast hall followed shortly afterwards with Bach's Christmas Oratorio. Since then, the choir has shaped the musical life of Hanover and the region. In addition to choral-symphonic works such as Brahms' German Requiem or the Mozart Requiem, the choir's repertoire includes sacred and secular motets, as well as a cappella works from the early Baroque to the modern era. Approx. 15 concerts The dedicated choir singers perform annually in concert halls and churches, but also in unusual places such as the Hanover correctional facility, as well as on regular concert tours. Various CD recordings testify to the quality of the Lower Saxony choir.
