Welcome to the Ch|Or|chester

WHO ARE WE

Ch|Or|chester of the Bürger-Sänger-Zunft München (BSZ) is a registered non-profit guild with more than 140 members that make up an orchestra and a mixed choir. All our musicians hold amateur status and perform mainly famous classical works. These are then rehearsed and presented in various Munich concert halls.

CONCERTS

Bürger-Sänger-Zunft has two main concert productions during the year, one in the spring and the second in the autumn. In addition, a selected group of musicians perform a particular church concert once a year. We also play or sing in local institutions such as senior citizen homes or day care centers and once in a while private concerts are given for special occasions.
