Haydn's Creation fills the Munich Frauenkirche with sound and light
On Sunday, October 25, 2026, Joseph Haydn's oratorio The Creation will be performed in the Frauenkirche Munich. The performance combines festive choral music, dramatic orchestral scenes, and the biblical vision of the emergence of the world into an impressive concert experience.
From the first sound to the radiant sound world
Haydn's music leads from the mysterious beginning to the great unfolding of life. Delicate orchestral colors, precise synchronization, and powerful choral interventions characterize the musical journey through the work. In the acoustics of the Frauenkirche, the voices and instruments gain a special spatial depth.
A masterpiece of the Viennese Classicism
Joseph Haydn composed The Creation in 1798, significantly shaping the history of the oratorio. The score combines narrative recitatives with colorful orchestration, virtuosic solo parts, and festive choral movements. Haydn's conducting ideas and his sense of musical dramaturgy make each scene immediately tangible.
With young voices and historical instrumental sound
The Junge Domkantorei München and the Mädchenkantorei am Münchner Dom will perform the oratorio under the direction of Domkantor Benedikt Celler. Soloists announced are Sarah Newman, Eric Price, and Ansgar Theis. The Baroque orchestra L’arpa festante plays on historical instruments; Stephan Pollhammer participates on the hammer clavier.
A festive concert evening in the Munich Cathedral
The Frauenkirche creates the atmospheric setting for a work that connects images of nature, spirituality, and musical energy. Between clearly contoured choral voices, radiant string colors, and dramatic highlights, a concentrated live atmosphere emerges that makes Haydn's sound language directly palpable.
The audience can expect a grand classical concert experience with choir, soloists, and Baroque orchestra on October 25, 2026. Those who want to experience Haydn's creative sound world in a sacred space should mark this evening in the Munich Frauenkirche and secure tickets in time.
