INTERKULTUR World Rankings

as of August 2025

[will be updated several times a year]

INTERKULTUR competitions are known for using the MUSICA MUNDI quality seal, which ensures that all choirs are judged on the basis of the same evaluation criteria. This allows for an impressive overall comparison of all participating choirs.

The World Rankings have been in existence since 2000 and provide a comprehensive overview of the best choirs in the world, based on their performance at INTERKULTUR competitions. Beyond the list of the Top 1000, there are individual lists reflecting the ranking in different categories, such as mixed choirs, male choirs, female choirs and others.

The INTERKULTUR World Rankings are updated regularly to ensure that they always reflect the current rankings of INTERKULTUR events.

A ranking among the best choirs in the world is a testament to a choir's hard work, dedication and talent. It can also serve as motivation for choirs to continue to improve and achieve excellence in their performances. The INTERKULTUR World Choir Rankings is a tribute to the diversity of choral music and the countless talented choirs from around the world.
