In this sing-along concert, all choir enthusiasts are invited to embark on a journey through the soundscapes of the present day and become part of a communal singing experience. Together with the symphonic wind orchestra of the Priesendorf Music Association , the project choir of the Bamberg Sängerkreis will perform an energetic and rousing program, including works such as Karl Jenkins' "Benedictus", "Baba Yetu" by Christopher Tin and Eric Whitacre's "Sing Gently". The audience can also join in with well-known choral classics such as "O Fortuna" and "Adiemus".

It is advisable to prepare and rehearse the works independently so that you can start the concert program straight away. Materials for this and the complete list of works can be found at www.saengerkreis-bamberg.de.
