Direct from Germany, amarcord is considered one of the finest vocal ensembles in the world.

The group captivates with its expressive, clear and precise singing, and also with its engaging performance style.

Known as one of the leading representatives of Leipzig’s music scene in Germany and abroad, amarcord makes regular appearances at festivals, the ensemble has toured the globe including cities like New York, San Francisco, Houston, as well as to Central America, Australia, Japan, Israel, the Middle East and Southeast Asia.Ìý In addition, amarcord has received six Contemporary A Cappella Recording Awards (CARA)!
