Mozart's Requiem at the Ascension Church Sendling

On Sunday, October 25, 2026, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's famous Requiem in D minor, KV 626, will be performed at the Ascension Church Sendling. The Lassus Choir Munich, the soloists, and the Capella Munich orchestra will present a concert evening under the direction of Felix Meybier, showcasing dramatic power, spiritual depth, and heartfelt solace.

Between Darkness and Redemption

Mozart's unfinished Requiem is one of the most moving works in classical choral literature. Powerful choral movements, contrasting orchestration, and the thrilling synchronization of solo voices and ensemble give the music an exceptional stage presence. In the acoustics of the Ascension Church, the colors of the orchestra and the multifaceted polyphony of the choir create an intense live atmosphere.

A Program with a Current Message of Peace

Following Mozart's Requiem is Pēteris Vasks' Dona nobis pacem. This meditative work provides a quiet, inward-focused counterpoint to Mozart's dramatic musical language. Thus, the program connects music history with a contemporary perspective on peace, farewell, and hope.

Strong Voices and Precise Conducting

Jasmin Binde, Madeleine Maier, Markus Zapp, and Manuel Adt will take on the solo parts. Together with the Lassus Choir Munich and Capella Munich, a richly populated concert experience emerges, ranging from striking choral segments to transparent chamber music moments. Felix Meybier's conducting brings the various levels of the work together into a coherent musical arc.

Conclusion: An Evening Filled with Sound and Meaning

Visitors can expect an emotional classical concert featuring Mozart's Requiem in D minor and the prayer for peace Dona nobis pacem. Those wishing to experience spiritual choral music, grand orchestral colors, and an engaging audience atmosphere live will find a special Munich concert date at the Ascension Church Sendling.
