Mannheim University Choir

Spring semester 2023

The university choir consists of around 80 singers and brings together students and staff members from the Baden-Württemberg Cooperative State University, the University of Applied Sciences, and the University of Mannheim. At the end of each semester, the university choir gives a concert in the university’s Aula, presenting the pieces they have worked on throughout the semester. 

Join the choir!

Whether you are a student, a doctoral student, a student assistant, or a staff member of the higher education institutions or the University of Mannheim: you are all welcome to join the Mannheim University Choir. The choir rehearses in groups of 15 people with the same voice type under the direction of Jürgen Weisser. The rehearsal weekend is part of the university choir’s preparation for the concert.
