In times of uncertainty and crisis, the ensemble draws on the unifying power of music. The highlight of the program is Rudolf Mauersberger's poignant funeral motet "Wie liegt die Stadt so wüst" (How desolate lies the city), premiered in 1945 in the ruins of Dresden's Kreuzkirche – a timeless memorial against war and destruction.
- Works performed by Johann Hermann Schein, Isabella Leonarda, Johannes Brahms, Hugo Wolf, and Rudolf Mauersberger
