Due to the special homogeneity of its sound and its stylistic versatility that covers all areas of choral singing – from medieval motets to contemporary works and from oratorios to operas – the Bavarian Radio Chorus is held in the very highest regard worldwide. Since 2023, the Chief Conductor of the BR Chorus and BRSO has been Sir Simon Rattle, and since 2022 Peter Dijkstra has shaped the profile of the Chorus as its Artistic Director. He was already associated with the Chorus in the same position from 2005 to 2016. In the musica viva series as well as in its own subscription concerts, the Chorus makes a name for itself regularly with world premieres. Guest performances have taken it to Asia as well as to the major festivals in Lucerne and Salzburg. The Bavarian Radio Chorus often performs together with top European orchestras, including the Berlin Philharmonic and the Staatskapelle Dresden, as well as original instrument ensembles such as Il Giardino Armonico or the Akademie fur Alte Musik Berlin. Conductors who appreciate working with the Chorus include Herbert Blomstedt, Zubin Mehta, Riccardo Muti, Andris Nelsons and Giovanni Antonini. The Bavarian Radio Chorus has received numerous prestigious awards for its CD recordings – one of them being the Diapason d’or for Silvestrov’ s Requiem for Larissa and Caplet’ s Le miroir de Jésus.
