Mondo Chôro live in Kamp-Lintfort

Experience Mondo Chôro live on February 19th

Mondo Chôro will perform at Kloster Kamp in Kamp-Lintfort, Germany on February 19, 2027. The ensemble specializes in *chôro*, a vibrant and complex instrumental Brazilian music genre originating in Rio de Janeiro in the late 19th century. Characterized by virtuosic improvisation, intricate counterpoint, and a blend of European harmonic structures with African rhythmic sensibilities, chôro typically features instruments like the *cavaco* (a small four-string guitar), flute, clarinet, mandolin, guitar (often seven-stringed), and *pandeiro* (a Brazilian frame drum). Mondo Chôro is recognized for its dedication to both traditional chôro repertoire and innovative compositions within the style.

Kloster Kamp is a former Cistercian monastery founded in 1148. Throughout its history, it served as an important religious and economic center for the Lower Rhine region. Secularized in 1803 during the Napoleonic era, the site underwent various uses including as an agricultural school and a hospital. Today, Kloster Kamp functions as a cultural center hosting concerts, exhibitions, and events.
