Since its establishment in 1968, the Göttingen Chamber Music Society has held its concerts in the University- Aula, a historical neo-classical monument right in the centre of town. The hall's magnificent atmosphere and superb acoustics make it a perfect location for chamber music. The Aula Concerts cover a wide and diverse range of inspiring, authentic chamber music, sometimes with a thematic focus, performed by leading German and international soloists and ensembles.
Concert visitors love the mix of familiar composers and less well known pieces and works that have not featured in previous Aula Concerts. And they are always appreciative of the opportunity to witness some of the "great" artists of our time alongside vibrant new talent.

The Society finances the costs of concerts and their organization from member fees.

As of September 2011, masterpieces of chamber music from Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland and the Baltic countries will be performed among others by ensembles from Oslo and Helsinki, which is guaranteed to give the series an especially authentic note. The Concerts will feature works by Johan Helmich Roman (Drottningholm), Friedrich Kuhlau, Niels W. Gade, Edward Grieg, Fartein Valen, Jean Sibelius, Carl Nielsen and Péteris Vasks, as well as a selection of pieces from the more familiar, "classical" repertoire of chamber music.
