The Wiener Singakademie is one of Austria's most prestigious and historically significant choral institutions. Established in 1858 by conductor and composer Johann von Herbeck in the tradition of the great European choral societies, it has contributed significantly to Vienna's rich musical tapestry. The Singakademie is known for its dedication to a vast and diverse choral repertoire, ranging from the classical masterpieces to contemporary works. As a testament to its commitment to musical excellence and exploration, the choir has been involved in numerous premieres and has worked with an array of distinguished conductors and orchestras throughout its existence.
Highlighting their versatility and breadth of performance, the Wiener Singakademie's recent releases encompass a variety of musical genres and periods. Their repertoire includes Gustav Mahler's emotionally charged "Das klagende Lied," Leonard Bernstein's eclectic and dynamic "MASS," and the hauntingly beautiful "Petite messe solennelle" by Gioachino Rossini. The ensemble's rendition of Carl Orff's dramatic "Carmina Burana," especially the iconic "O Fortuna," showcases their ability to deliver powerful live performances. Their dedication to classical giants is also evident in their recordings of live performances, such as Beethoven's 9th Symphony and Verdi's "Simon Boccanegra," attesting to their role in keeping the grand tradition of choral music alive and vibrant. Through their dynamic live recordings and commitment to choral excellence, the Wiener Singakademie has earned a reputation as a torchbearer of the classical choral tradition while also embracing contemporary compositions and the spirit of innovation.
