“The highlight of the evening, however, was the Vokalhelden children\u2019s choir.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Vokalhelden are a choral program with several children\u2019s choirs and one youth choir in Berlin. Founded in 2013 by the Berlin Philharmonic on the initiative of Sir Simon Rattle and Simon Halsey, the Vokalhelden have been inspiring young people aged 6 to 18 to sing\u2014regardless of where they come from or which language they speak. Since 2021, the Vokalhelden have been run by a non-profit association. The Artistic Director of the Vokalhelden is Johannes David Wolff.

At four locations in Hellersdorf, Moabit, Sch\u00f6neberg, and the Gropiusstadt, as well as in the district-wide youth choir, around 450 children aged 6 to 18 rehearse weekly in twelve Vokalhelden choirs. The aim is to inspire as many children and young people as possible to enjoy singing together, regardless of background, mother tongue, disabilities, or financial means.

In 2023, the Vokalhelden received the OPUS KLASSIK Award in the category of Young Talent Development as well as the Sponsorship Award for Intercultural Dialogue from the Pill Mayer Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
