As a choral director, Hantke has led numerous concerts with his ensembles, including all works of the core choral choral repertoire. A particular interest has been children’s singing, and as such Hantke has been very active as a director of children’s choirs.

His output also includes music for brass ensemble and organ solo. Hantke’s compositions are published by Strube Verlag (Munich).
