A Benefit Evening Between Groove and Grandeur in the Allerheiligen-Hofkirche

On Friday, June 12, 2026, in Munich, exquisite choral work meets great sound culture: “Jazz Meets Classical” invites you to the Allerheiligen-Hofkirche. The benefit concert featuring MaxVokal Munich promises an evening where jazz impulses, classical choral pieces, and the unique acoustics of the historic space combine to create an intense concert experience.

A Program with Range and Soul

Under the direction of Gerald Häußler, the ensemble presents a program that stylistically spans widely: from Bob Chilcott’s A Little Jazz Mass to works by W. A. Mozart, J.S. Bach, C.V. Stanford, Peter Anglea, Ēriks Ešenvalds, and Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, culminating in a potpourri from Leonard Bernstein’s West Side Story. It is precisely this orchestration of the sacred, swing, and musical elegance that defines the charm of the evening.

Historic Space, Direct Sound

The Allerheiligen-Hofkirche is considered one of the atmospherically strongest venues in Munich. The former church space was reopened as a concert and event hall in 2003 after the severe destruction of World War II. Those who sit here experience proximity, resonance, and a stage presence that makes every dynamic nuance in the choir audible. The combination of architecture, light, and live atmosphere gives the evening an almost ceremonial quality.

MaxVokal Munich: Choral Tradition with Profile

MaxVokal has emerged from the children’s and youth choir of the parish of St. Maximilian and primarily focuses on sacred music from the Baroque and modern eras. The ensemble regularly performs in Munich and beyond, including musical highlights with significant public resonance. For this evening, the choir brings its experience with a cappella precision, sound balance, and fine articulation to a program that conveys both jazz colors and classical discipline.

A Good Cause, A Grand Evening

The concert is designed as a benefit event. According to the event organizers, the proceeds directly support a women's shelter in Munich, which has been providing protection for women and children in acute emergencies for many years. This adds additional depth to the evening: here, musical enjoyment merges with lived solidarity.

Travel, Admission, and Orientation

The Allerheiligen-Hofkirche is located in the Residenz Munich, easily accessible via Odeonsplatz. For arrival, U3/U6 as well as U4/U5 to Odeonsplatz are recommended; bus 100 and the S-Bahn to Marienplatz are also suitable options.

Conclusion: A Concert That Unites Atmosphere and Aspirations

“Jazz Meets Classical” promises an evening for listeners who appreciate vocal precision, stylistic variety, and an impressive concert venue. Anyone wanting to experience choral art in the interplay of jazz, classical music, and a historic backdrop live should mark this date in Munich.
