Brunswick Cathedral Youth Choir consists of 80 young people aged between 15 and 20 passionately singing classical German and international choral works from Baroque to Modern.

As the finest and most experienced youth choir of Germany’s largest evangelical institution for church music (“Die Braunschweiger Domsingschule”) we go on concert tours around European countries every summer – like Sweden in summer ’22 or Czech Republic last year – bringing with us a diverse programme (see below). We love to bring happiness and hope with us and therefore will sing choral works for a cappella choir and choir with organ accompaniment on the theme of "Light"
