uniChoir

The uniChor Siegen is made up of students and staff from the entire university - external members are also very welcome! The repertoire is wide-ranging. In addition to a cappella choral music from the Baroque to the present day, larger works are regularly performed with instrumental or orchestral accompaniment, e.g. in cooperation with the uniOrchester, the Philharmonie Südwestfalen or other choirs such as the Kantorei Siegen. Since the summer of 2004, the uniChor has been under the direction of UMD Ute Debus.

Sing along!

The uniChor Siegen invites you to sing along!

We are happy to welcome committed singers in all voice groups. All university members and external singers who enjoy choral singing are very welcome!

If you are interested or have any questions, please send us an e-mail
and tell us briefly who you are, what voice range you sing in and whether you have any previous choral experience.

We on the board look forward to hearing from you!
