Bavarian Highlands

**Summer Concert** featuring works by Edgar Elgar and other composers. Four-part choral pieces with piano accompaniment by Maki Müller, conducted by Yannick Schwencke. Cantiamo invites you on a melodious journey through various eras and moods of choral music. The highlight of the evening is Edward Elgar’s impressive work *“Bavarian Highlands”*—a musical declaration of love for the Bavarian landscape and way of life. In this work, Elgar set his wife’s texts to music, painting vivid scenes: from joyful dances and idyllic images of nature to quiet, almost mystical moments. The music is varied, colorful, and full of charm—at times lively and folksy, at others tender and lyrical. The program is complemented by additional works by significant composers of choral literature: The melodious and catchy pieces by John Rutter, the romantic sacred music of Josef Rheinberger, and the timeless polyphony of Thomas Tallis ensure stylistic diversity and musical depth. With this varied concert program, we hope to appeal to both connoisseurs and those curious about choral music. The start of advance ticket sales will be announced here in due time.
