When many voices become a great sound

On July 5, 2026, the Circus Krone in Munich will turn into a stage for an extraordinary choir concert: In the participatory project Singing with Sir Simon, the Bavarian Radio Choir, the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, and numerous amateur choirs meet Sir Simon Rattle. The result promises an intense concert experience between symphonic power, choral sound, and moving live atmosphere.

An evening full of sound colors and community

This project thrives on the special tension between professional orchestral culture and the energy of hundreds of voices. Around Orff's Carmina Burana, a program unfolds that makes choral music not only audible but physically felt. In Circus Krone, a mood is created that truly brings great vocal works to life: concentrated, festive, and supported by shared joy of singing.

Sir Simon Rattle in his element

Sir Simon Rattle is regarded as a conductor with charisma, curiosity, and a keen sense for large musical arcs. Since 2023, he has been shaping the BRSO as chief conductor. His strength is particularly evident in projects with many participants: precise conducting, clear synchronization, and a confident grasp on sound balance, dynamics, and orchestration. For the audience, this means a concert that not only sounds grand but is also dramaturgically well thought out to the very last detail.

Circus Krone as an impressive concert stage

The Circus Krone building is one of the most famous cultural venues in Munich and offers around 3,000 seats according to Munich tourism. Its unique architecture creates a direct closeness to the action, allowing voices, orchestral colors, and choir blocks to have an immediate effect. For a project like this, this proximity is a real asset: it makes every crescendo wave, every entry, and every tonal condensation intensely experienceable.

A musical grand event with allure

The Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra is internationally renowned and has been awarded a Grammy among other honors. In Munich, this top-tier performance meets a project that combines music communication, excellence, and enthusiasm for collective singing. Those who want to experience classical music with emotional depth and great symphonic presence will find one of the most notable concerts of the summer here.

Conclusion: Singing with Sir Simon is more than a concert - it is a sound-powerful community experience with goosebump potential. Anyone wanting to experience great choral music in an impressive live atmosphere should not miss this evening at Circus Krone.
