In these times of war on battlefields and in the hearts let us come together for all that makes us human.
Dear visitor.
It is a great pleasure for us to invite you to a special journey: for the period of one year, join us in several concerts in Berlin, Potsdam, and Lübeck, follow us on social media, and watch the growth of Lyhrus' new composition Requiem, written for six choirs and vocal ensembles. Meet the artists and other members of our audience during and after the concerts.
And maybe play yourself a singing part in the premiere of the whole Requiem on 22nd November 2025 in the Berlin Cathedral.
