Heavenly chorals, desire and solace; a Christmas story in all its glory. Let your heart be warmed as the winter days approach.

Sparkling brass, roaring timpani and a jubilant chorus: Bach's Christmas Oratorio falls regally at the door. From that radiant beginning, the wonders thread themselves together: heavenly chorales, an enchanting echo duet, the trio "Ach, wenn wird die Zeit erscheinen" full of longing and comfort - and the Christmas story unfolds in all its glory. Heartwarming music in the darkest days of the year.

photo exhibition NEIGHBOURS

Have you seen the NEIGHBOURS exhibition? In the foyer of the Great Hall you can see beautiful portraits of local residents - poor, rich, hip, young and old. A nice mix of tradition and modernity. Definitely worth a visit before or after the concert!
