Gasteig HP8
Munich Adult Education Centre

As part of this year's Bach Festival, the Munich Adult Education Centre is dedicating Sunday Singing to Johann Sebastian Bach and his chorales. Selected works will be used to explore the church year – from Advent, Christmas, Passiontide and Easter to Pentecost and the time of remembrance. As a special guest, the renowned concert choir Arcis-Vocalisten München will enrich the experience by providing the choral parts so that the chorales can be sung in four voices. Choirmaster Thomas Gropper will also provide insights into the musical structures and contexts.

All visitors are cordially invited to sing along or simply listen and enjoy the diversity of Bach's music.
