Klassik | Meißner Kantorei 1961 | Chormusik aus Tradition und Moderne

Classical music opens up spaces that resonate deeply. For vespers in the Kreuzkirche Dresden on Saturday, June 13, 2026 at 5:00 pm, the space is transformed into an oasis of reflection and inner contemplation. On hot summer days, the cool church offers a place of refuge to find deep peace in the midst of a lively community. The shared experience of timeless art brings people together.

The focus is on an interplay of tradition and modernity as first-class live music from the Meissen Kantorei 1961 (conductor: Georg Christoph Sandmann). The ensemble combines contemporary sacred choral works of the 20th/21st century with traditional classical music.

The program promises a profound experience with classical masterpieces by Schütz and Schein in dialogue with Hugo Distler. Joseph Klötzer brings orchestral splendor to the organ with Louis Vierne's "Cantabile". Modern works by Britten, Neubert, Buchenberg and Miškinis round off an afternoon full of harmony in the heart of Dresden.
