Choir and orchestra of Witten/Herdecke University
Music plays in Witten - and has been doing so for more than 30 years! The choir and orchestra began with university music director Ingo Ernst Reihl, who still heads both organisations today. Music sounds most beautiful when you make it together: the ensembles are made up of students, graduates and graduates, teaching staff, employees and friends of the UW/H.
Every semester, the university choir and orchestra put together a new concert programme and present it at the university's own events or at concert and event venues in the region. Take a look at our dates so you don't miss a single performance!
