Bach h-Moll Messe

In the organizer's words:

"The greatest work of art the world has ever seen" - at least that's what the head of the Berlin Sing-Akademie Carl Friedrich Zelter said about Bach's B minor Mass in 1811, more than 60 years after his death. But even without this superlative, it is the master's most frequently performed work in the world to this day and is said to make even die-hard atheists think. It is considered the pinnacle of Bach's oeuvre and is the last great work he was able to complete shortly before his death.
For the Dresdner Kammerchor and Hans-Christoph Rademann, it is also a summit of sorts; the choir will perform it together with the Dresdner Philharmonie as the highlight of its 40th anniversary year.
