The Dresden Kreuzchor presents a diverse program that includes both a cappella works and compositions with Basso Continuo. A special highlight is the performance of Ēriks Ešenvalds' "Stars," an impressive choral work accompanied by the glass harmonica. The spherical sounds of the water-tuned glasses give the music an almost otherworldly dimension - calm and cosmic, simultaneously mysterious and spiritual. The sensitive words of the piece merge with the floating sounds to create an intense listening experience. In addition to this contemporary work, works from composers ranging from Schütz to Reger are also featured in the program, showcasing the versatility of the long-standing boys' choir.
