A Space that Carries Sound
The St. Mary Monastery Church is one of the oldest Gothic buildings in Germany and has an atmosphere in which organ sound can unfold particularly deeply. The clear acoustics, the historical masonry, and the solemn spaciousness of the room make every performance a small event. Those who want to not only hear church music but also physically feel it will find an intense concert experience here.

Program between Shine and Contour
The program connects different eras and sound languages. Mozart brings melodic elegance and classical balance, Ritter opens the view to the romantic organ world, and Praetorius sets the historical framework with spiritual depth. In this mix, an evening emerges that does not rely on volume but on orchestration, color changes, and the fine synchronization of space and registers.
