The tradition of choral singing

choirs are not only an important part of music culture, but also promote the sense of community and cultural identity. This becomes particularly clear in the history of the male choir in Limburgerhof. Founded in 1903, it brought joy and entertainment to many hearts over the decades, until the dissolution in 2012, which was due to a severe decline in members. But the love of music remained, and on the occasion of the 110th anniversary in 2013, the idea of ​​a men's project choir was launched.

This project choir was aimed at former members and interested men to renew old acquaintances and make new friendships. The result was the foundation of the new mixed choir community "No Limits", in which many former members are still active and the men's singing tradition is kept alive.

funding and support in choral singing

The Association of German Concert Choirs (VDKC) plays an important role in the support of choirs. With the aim of promoting musical understanding and technical skills, the VDKC not only offers financial support, but also further training opportunities for choir directors and singers. Events and competitions organized by the association help to further develop the artistic quality.
