The choir is primarily concerned with the a cappella music in order to concentrate on the work at a balanced sound image in just intonation can. The repertoire includes sacred and secular choral music of different countries, cultures and eras, which is also reflected in the name (Latin carmina mundi: Songs of the World ). A focus of the present work is the development of contemporary choral music.
