The choir Mainzer Domchor is the choir at Mainz Cathedral, of boys' and men's voices. It was founded in 1866 by the then bishop of Mainz, Wilhelm Emmanuel von Ketteler.

History

The choir of c. 140 voices is mainly concerned with the musical part in services at the cathedral. The singers are trained in three weekly rehearsals in the Chorhaus near the cathedral. Every year, a small group of new singers is educated to join the choir. The repertoire consists of church music by Johann Sebastian Bach, Joseph Haydn, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Ludwig van Beethoven, Franz Schubert and Anton Bruckner.

The choir has toured several countries in concert, including Italy, France, Belgium, Switzerland, Israel, Russia, the US, Canada and Brazil. They made several recordings, representing the repertoire.

Heinrich Hain was conductor to 1985, succeeded by Domkapellmeister Mathias Breitschaft to 2012, and then Karsten Storck [de].
