Workshops

Our workshops are the heart of Black Forest Voices. There’s something for everyone here—whether you’re a beginner or a pro, young or old, a singer, a choir director, a creative artist, or a cultural organizer. Vocal techniques, arranging and composing, cultural management topics, historical music, jazz, beatboxing, conducting, improvisation… There’s so much to learn and discuss here. Sometimes it’s just about listening and singing along.

The workshop program will be published in spring 2027.

All educational programs are carried out with the kind support of the AKADEMIE DER AMATEURMUSIK Baden-Württemberg, the Badischer Chorverband, the Baden-Württembergischer Sängerbund e. V., the Swabian Choral Association, the Schwarzwald-Baar-Heuberg Choral Association, the Breisgau Choral Association, and the Association of German Concert Choirs in Baden-Württemberg, and are funded by the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research, and the Arts as well as the German Choral Youth. Thank you very much for the wonderful cooperation and support!
