Inside

A summer evening full of longing, sound, and great choral lines

On July 18, 2026, the Sonoris Vocal Ensemble invites you to the choral concert Wish(dream) at St. Paul Church in Fürth. The young ensemble from the Nuremberg region combines works by Elgar, Strauss, Shaw, Brahms, and Rheinberger in this program to create a musical journey to places of longing – supported by the special acoustics of the church space and the organ by Manfred Meier-Appel.

Young voice, strong handwriting

Sonoris was founded only in January 2024 and has quickly established itself as a semi-professional chamber choir with a distinctive profile. At the German Choral Festival 2025 in Nuremberg, the ensemble received the 1st prize twice in the highest performance level; additionally, it was awarded the special prize from Deutschlandfunk Kultur as the Best Unplugged Choir. These successes shape the expectations for the concert in Fürth: precise intonation, clear text articulation, and a choral aesthetic that emphasizes transparency over mere volume.

Between longing and sound architecture

The title Wish(dream) already suggests what this evening is about: inner images, distant places, and music that spans a wide space between choral passages and organ points. The announced works tell of paradise, distance, nature, and spiritual collection. Especially in a church, such scores unfold their full effect when dynamics, breath control, and orchestration of the voices merge into a dense concert experience.

St. Paul as a resonance space

St. Paul Church is the largest church space in Fürth and offers seating for around 700 to 800 visitors. Its excellent acoustics, sanitary facilities, a cloakroom, and the proximity to Fürth's main train station have made it an attractive venue for concerts and spiritual music for years. The barrier-free access via the Paulskirche bus stop and the good accessibility by bus and train speak for a relaxed concert evening without haste.

Organ and ensemble in fine balance

With Manfred Meier-Appel at the organ, the program gains additional depth. In such settings, it is not only the grand gesture that matters, but also the synchronization of voices, the breathing phrasing, and the interplay of space echo and musical structure. This is precisely the strength of a well-prepared chamber choir: it allows the audience not just to hear, but to truly experience the sound in the space.

Conclusion: a concert for everyone who wants to experience choral music intensively

Wish(dream) promises an evening with fine sound colors, emotional tension, and an ensemble that has already proven itself impressively on stage. Those who want to experience choir in the best sense should mark this date in Fürth and let the music have an effect on them live in the church space.
