Founded in Leipzig in 1992 by five singers from the famous Thomanerchor, amarcord – a name that means “I remember” in the Emilia-Romagna dialect – is part of this new generation of a cappella choirs that has no qualms about breaking down barriers between genres and eras. Together with Daniel Hope's violin and Simon Crawford-Phillips' piano, they plan to take the audience on a journey through half a millennium of creation, from Thomas Tallis to Benjamin Britten.
