The Schweizer Vokalconsort is made up of professional singers from all over Switzerland. Since being established by Marco Amherd in 2018, the ensemble has presented rarities that are usually neglected in conventional concert programming. The ensemble’s repertoire bridges the gap between early and contemporary music, combining a variety of soundscapes. The group also focuses on music from Switzerland – bringing new Swiss vocal music into circulation, commissioning compositions and performing long-forgotten works. The ensemble has sung at the Davos Festival, the Bach Festival Schaffhausen and the frauenkomponiert festival in Basel, among others. www.schweizervokalconsort.ch
