Further concerts of the complete cantatas of the Christmas Oratorio (1994 & 1996) and St. John Passion (1995 & 1996) delighted audiences. In April 1997 the Monteverdi Choir Berlin was invited by the Syrian Cultural Ministry to perform in Damascus. The choir has subsequently given numerous concerts of, among other works, J. S. Bach's Motets and G. F. Handel's Messiah.
Since 2002 the Monteverdi Choir Berlin has further concentrated on interpreting newly discovered vocal works by the Berlin composer Johann Crueger (1598-1662).
