Company description and purpose of company Gabrielichor Bern

The Gabrielichor Bern was founded in 1974 by Hans Gafner, who worked as a conductor and musical director for 36 years. In May 2011 he handed over this office to Andreas Reize. The Gabrielichor Bern is primarily dedicated to the performance of multi-choir works from the 16th to the 21st century. This has resulted in a diverse and unusual repertoire. It is a concern of the Gabrielichor to perform the selected works at a high level and as authentically as possible. As a chamber choir - it has around fifty singers - it strives for a transparent sound with precise diction. Through their emotional engagement, the choir and its leader want to convey extraordinary experiences to the audience. Highlights in choral history were the performances of Bach's B minor Mass and St. Matthew Passion, Mozart's C minor Mass, Monteverdi's Vespers (including a performance in St. Mark's Church in Venice) and the concert with the 40-part motet Spem in alium by Thomas Tallis. The choir has also taken on rarely performed single-choir works: Willy Burkhard's Mass and Deluge or Hugo Distler's Christmas story and Passion. A recent rendition of a Vespers to Mary by Giovanni Rovetta, Monteverdi's successor to San Marco, should be mentioned. In May 2013 the choir had the unique opportunity to perform Brahms' Ein deutsches Requiem in the Zurich Tonhalle together with the Zurich Bach Choir and the Tonhalle Orchestra. Based on the work insertions, as they were common in Brahms's time, Andreas Reize added Schütz motets sung a cappella between the individual movements of the Requiem, which meant an additional challenge for the two choirs.
