A “felicitous symbiosis”: that’s what broadcasting director Martin Wagner called his working relationship with Howard Arman and the BR Choir. With those two words he summed up the general mood to a tee – reason enough to join Howard Arman in celebrating the extension of his contract to 2021!
In honor of Leonard Bernstein’s 100th birthday, the Choir and Klaas Stok presented a programme of music by American composers who were his companions, friends and “heirs”, as well as two famous choral works by Bernstein himself.

Howard Arman and the Bavarian Radio Choir present great vocal art and a fine sense of sound – full of Italianità! On the programme: “Quattro pezzi sacri” by Verdi and “Stabat mater” by Rossini. With soloists Rosa Feola, Gerhild Romberger, Dmitry Korchak and Mika Kares.
Two large symphonic works by the Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninov can be experienced on a CD from BR-KLASSIK.

Live recordings of concerts in Munich, January 2016 and January 2017.
An exciting combination of four large psalms with soloists, choir and orchestra, and the famous prayer “Give us Thy blessed peace” by Martin Luther.

The Mass in B minor, one of the greatest musical legacies of Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), is presented by the Bavarian Radio Choir. This live recording features renowned soloists and the Concerto Köln, a longtime instrumental partner of the Choir for historically informed performances.
