	About us

The “Madrigalchor Eppendorf” was founded in 1989 under the name “Kulturhaus Chor” and is located since that time in ”Kulturhaus Eppendorf“ in Hamburg. 1994 the choir was renamed into ”Madrigalchor Eppendorf”.
This name represents one focus in music, a-cappella-works of the Renaissance period. The repertoire also includes romantic and contemporary music. Since 2007 the choir is a registered association.

The Madrigalchor Eppendorf e.V. is a mixed choir of about 50 singers and performs two concerts in Hamburg and two summer concerts in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern almost every year, alternating secular and sacred programmes.
In 2006 we started a cooperation with ”Sinfonieorchester Eppendorf” which allows us to perform classical oratorios like W.A. Mozart’s Requiem in 2006 and Maurice Duruflé’s Requiem in 2009. Kammerchor Altona also takes part in those events.




	Uschi Krosch is the conductor of the choir since 2001. She has the diploma (piano) and musical pre-school education of Musical Academy Cologne and diploma of choirconduction of Musical Academy Hamburg. She works as musical teacher but works also for musical production in theatres. In 2004 she founded the ”Chamberchoir Altona” who performs mainly a cappella works from 19th and 20th century and cooperate in crossover projects with other kinds of art. The choir made one exchange with choir ”San Anton Abesbatza” in Bilbao in 2005 and intends to do the same with Caeciliakoret in DK-Aarhus.
