The Knabenchor Hannover, based in Hanover, Germany, is a prestigious boys' choir known for its rich tradition and musical excellence. Founded in 1950 by Heinz Hennig, who directed the choir until 2001, the choir has since been under the direction of several accomplished conductors, with Jörg Breiding currently at the helm. Throughout its history, the Knabenchor Hannover has distinguished itself both nationally and internationally, with a repertoire that encompasses a wide range of choral music from the Renaissance to contemporary works.

With numerous recordings and performances, the choir has carved out a niche for itself particularly in the realm of sacred and secular choral music. Their recent releases, including a variety of Christmas-themed albums such as "Christmas Around the World," showcase their versatility and ability to bring a fresh perspective to traditional music. Whether performing timeless classics like "Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht" or engaging their audience with interactive elements as in "Knabenchor Hannover: Sing mit!" ('Sing with us!'), the Knabenchor Hannover continues to enthrall audiences of all ages with their impeccable musicianship and youthful energy.
