Repertoire with audio examples

Travel through time and 100 years of musical entertainment

No epoch of 'modern' music is safe from the hands of vocaldente. The ensemble's many-faceted repertoire ranges from the acrobatic „Maple Leaf Rag“ of 1904, to the evergreens of the 'roaring twenties' (e.g. Cole Porter's "Let's Misbehave", to German film hits "Wenn der weiße Flieder wieder blüht“, all the way to swing and rock'n'roll classics (such as "Perfect“ or "The Wanderer“)

International Hits (such as ABBAs „Mamma Mia“ or Totos "Rosanna") are just as present as those original finds (e.g. "Does your Chewinggum lose it's flavor on the bedpost over night?"). Country songs ( John Denvers „Thank God I´m A Country Boy“) collide with the contagiousness of the 80's (including „Faith“, „Footloose“ or „Maniac“).

The 90's make a comeback with a '„Boygroup-Medley“ and the German hit „3-Tage-Bart“ by 'die Ärzte.'   Songs from the top of today's charts complete the trip through time, with German hits like Xavier Naidoo's „Sie Sieht Mich Nicht“, Vanessa Carltons „A Thousand Miles“ and Linkin Parks "Crawling."

For deeper moments of introspection our repertoire offers Kurt Bestors "Prayer of the Children"  or a poem by Bonnhoeffer, set to music: "Von guten Mächten". Thoughtful self-composed songs, such as "Konsument" and "Sommersong" polish the overall package.
