Hannover International Ensemble

The Hannover International Ensemble was founded in 2010 by international students from the Musikhochschule Hannover, led by conductor and mandolinist Alon Sariel.

The project's aim is to present high standard concerts of artistically high quality music executed by talented and qualified international students.

The young ensemble has performed in several occasions in and out side of the school, including a Matine at Hannover Landesmuseum and the Stifttung fuer HMT annual concert. It's first program, Neue Alte Musik, was a great success and was received very enthusiastically by both critics and audience.
