Jewish New Year Concert 5787: Sonorous Beginning at the Prinzregententheater
On Tuesday, October 13, 2026, the Jewish Chamber Orchestra Munich will open the Jewish New Year 5787 at the Prinzregententheater. Under the direction of Daniel Grossmann, the concert evening combines festive synagogue music with Jewish folk music, creating space for reflection, community, and a hopeful new beginning.
Between Liturgy, Folk Music, and Orchestral Splendor
The program explores different facets of Jewish sound tradition. Traditional melodies meet new arrangements, while the orchestration of the Jewish Chamber Orchestra Munich shifts between ceremonial expansiveness, rhythmic agility, and intimate musical communication. This creates a concert experience that connects cultural rootedness with contemporary stage performance.
Two Cantors, One Festive Concert Evening
The vocal parts of the liturgical sacred music will be taken by Nachman Turgeman and Yitzchak Zelman. Their cantorial interpretation gives the evening a special vocal presence: Between prayer, melody, and expressive interpretation, a sound space opens up that makes the spiritual significance of Rosh Hashanah immediately tangible.
Music as a Sign of Hope and Community
Rosh Hashanah literally means 'Head of the Year' and marks the beginning of the Jewish year. The musical dramaturgy addresses central thoughts of this time: pausing, reflection, and the wish for a good, sweet start. The live atmosphere at the Prinzregententheater combines festive acoustics with an audience mood that brings together different generations and cultural backgrounds.
A Concert for a Diverse Audience
The New Year concert of the Jewish Chamber Orchestra Munich has established itself as a special date in the Munich concert calendar over more than a decade. The evening is aimed at both Jewish and non-Jewish visitors, classical music fans, and anyone who wishes to experience Jewish music traditions live in an impressive concert hall. During the intermission, traditional apples with honey invite a symbolic sweet beginning of the year.
Conclusion: Experience Rosh Hashanah Live
