For the first time at the Apostelkirche, the International A-cappella Week Hannover presents: Luminosa – an internationally staffed and multiple award-winning women's vocal ensemble. The six singers Cordula, Alexa, Melanie, Laure, Julia, and Judith come from Germany, France, and Italy and studied or are still studying at various European music universities in German and Italian-speaking regions. They founded Luminosa in 2023 out of their shared love for music and unite their six personalities and their six characteristic voices into a colorful, radiant, multifaceted, and yet homogeneous ensemble sound.

In 2024, the ensemble was already heard with their program "Darkness and Light" in Munich, Innsbruck, and Augsburg, and performed in the Wieskirche as part of the "Old Music in Young Hands" format. In summer, further concerts titled "lumina caeli" followed in South Tyrol. Luminosa is a prize winner of the 14th a cappella competition in Leipzig and also received the special prize for the best unamplified piece there. In April 2024, Luminosa received the ensemble scholarship from the University Mozarteum Salzburg, with which the six singers will implement a new concert concept in 2025.

Since 2001, the International A-cappella Week Hannover has enriched the cultural life in the state capital of Lower Saxony. For more than 20 years, the festival has offered time to enjoy, to take a break, and to spend a good time with good friends. Furthermore, it visibly moves the choral scene in Hannover and the region: artists who have been guests inspire the songs, arrangements, and repertoire of local choirs. And even more: every year, workshops, master classes, and open singing meetings are part of the festival, providing opportunities for exchange. Regardless of the musical genre, regardless of the leading artists – personal memories as well as artistic collaborations will emerge again at the 23rd International A-cappella Week Hannover that will last. Be there: from May 3 to May 11, 2025!
