TUMChor: The Choir of Our University

We are the choir of the Technical University of Munich (TUM) – students, staff, faculty, alumni, and friends of TUM. Every year we perform in the Munich Philharmonie at the university’s Advent concerts – and at many other festive occasions. Sing along!

Sing along!

We are always happy to welcome new singers interested in performing with the Symphonisches Ensemble München (Symphonic Ensemble of Munich). Students, staff, faculty, alumni, and friends of the Technical University of Munich are welcome to join us!

  • Do you already have experience singing in a choir?
  • Are you willing to independently prepare pieces?
  • Do you have time to attend all (if at all possible) rehearsals?

As a project choir we practice specifically in preparation for upcoming concerts – it is therefore necessary to register seperately for each new project. This allows us to organize the various choir projects with maximum flexibility, be it in the "big choir" for the traditional TUM Advent matinee and VivaTUM (1st Advent), in the TUM Chamber Choir or sometimes in a very modern way in the TUM Pop-Up Choir.

We are currently preparing for the TUM Adventsmatinee and VivaTUM 2026. Under the working title "Advent, Advent ...!", we are developing a diverse, varied, and ambitious programme featuring both a cappella choral works and pieces performed together with our long-standing partner orchestra, the Symphonisches Ensemble München. The concerts will take place on the First Sunday of Advent, 29 November 2026, at the Isarphilharmonie HP8 in Munich.

New singers are invited to take part in a short audition prior to the regular rehearsal. Auditions will be held on Monday, 20 July 2026 and Monday, 12 October 2026. Don't worry – the audition is very manageable and primarily helps us achieve a balanced choral sound more quickly during our compact rehearsal period. Further information on the audition process and how to prepare can be found here. 

Details and dates for all projects as well as the registration for interested people who like to sing can be found on the wiki page (German).
