Since April 2011, Philipp Amelung has been the director of Camerata Vocalis. He is eager to continue the tradition of his predecessors and, as a result, the choir continues to act as an ambassador for the University of Tübingen abroad and performs concert programmes of less well known or new music. Highlights of these concert tours have been Israel and Palestine (2012), Brazil (2013), Saxony (Leipzig and Dresden 2014) and Sweden (2016).
