On "The clazz Files"
A November feeling
"Outside the June sun is blazing, however inside it is dark and sombre, and Sting's sorrowful "Fragile" resounds. Around 40 young men and women are singing. And yet the refrain sounds like just a quiet breath. It is melancholy and Novemberish in the Eisfabrik in Hanover's Südstadt.
But it all started so summery: The young Hanoverian Concert Choir clazz opened the program […] with such upbeat songs as "Blame it on the Boogie" and "Good Vibrations".
Then the high point: "Ride like the Wind" by Christopher Cross as a fast tempo a cappella version. It is a small vocal firework display: imaginative and multifaceted.
[…] the performance of the choir, which is well-known beyond Hanover for its versatility, has charm and supplies a few original surprises [..]"

On "The clazz Files"
Journey from classic to jazz
"The 50 members of the concert choir "clazz" are rehearsing for their new program, which enjoyed its premiere yesterday. Tonight residents of the Südstadt can go and see for themselves the ability of the Young Concert Choir Hannover in a concert in the Eisfabrik.
[…] "The clazz Files - dramatic choir theatre" is the name of the music program which the singers are offering their audiences this year. […]
That the young singers - with an average age of 25 - display their acting talents is not a novelty. Two years ago clazz performed Oscar Wilde's fairy tale "The Birthday of the Infantin" as a play. In 2005 the choir presented Mozart's Requiem

on "Of faith and despair"
Melancholic tones create a special atmosphere
"Of faith and despair" is the name of the current program presented last Saturday evening by the young concert choir clazz. With this theme they succeeded in filling the church with beautiful voices and a unique atmosphere: contemplative, calm and meditative, but also quite thrilling"
Landesmusikrat Niedersachsen (09.10.2005)
on the choir competition
Successful choirs at the 7th Lower Saxony Choir Competition in Wolfenbüttel
"Crowds flocked to the Holy Trinity Church in Wolfenbüttel on Saturday for the prize holders' concert of the 7th Lower Saxony Choir Competition. Around 800 visitors filled the church and heard excellent presentations from the most successful choirs in the competition. […] The highly sought-after first prizes and the chance to represent the state at the nation-wide competition in Kiel on 20-28 May 2006 went to the following choirs: […] including the jazz choir clazz - Young Concert Choir Hannover under the leadership of Thomas Posth. […]"

Ev. Zeitung (12.06.2005)
on "Romeo and Juliet"

Audience delighted with 'Romeo and Juliet'
"[...] This concert was successful in every respect. And this applies both to the choice of the songs and the musical performance. Choirmaster Thomas Posth showed that his many-faceted choir is rhythmically sound and in good form with a polished choral sound.[...]"

Holsteinischer Courier (18.05.2005)
on "Romeo and Juliet"

Sparkling highlights in the church
"[...]The choir showed good vocal disposition and in many songs capable soloists were able to give the works sparkle.[...]"

EZ (27.02.2005)

"It began with the a-capella motet[...] "Unser Leben ist ein Schatten" (We must vanish like a shadow). Thomas Posth presented the motet [...] at a steady pace, through which beautiful piano intonations came and the coloratura sparkled easily.[...] The voices had a good timbre and produced a lovely, clear sound. [...] "

Deister-Leine-Zeitung
(22.02.2005)

[...] The Requiem KV626 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was performed perfectly. The young artists of "clazz" together with the orchestra presented the shock images of the Day of Judgement splendidly. [...] It was more than understandable that the performance [...] led the audience to applaud wildly and give standing ovations."

Südwest Presse 11. Juni 2003

„The choir with 15 female and 13 male singers scintillated with a cheerful atmosphere...“

„...the singers again and again succeeded in fascinating the audience.“

„The well-known song "Let the Sunshine in" from the musical "Hair", or other popular oldies like "On the sunny side of the street", "Good vibrations", "Walking on sunshine" and "Follow the sun" to name just a few, increased the audience's good mood. This resulted in the enthusiastic audience's demanding two encores after the finely-sung evening song "Der Mond ist aufgegangen".“
