Autumnal Sound Splendor in the Salvatorkirche

On Sunday, November 8, 2026, the autumn concert "Hooray, the wine is here!" invites you to a festive evening of grand choral music at the Salvatorkirche Duisburg. The Philharmonic Choir Duisburg, members of the Duisburg Philharmonic Orchestra, and three solo voices combine baroque brilliance, classical form sense, and operatic energy.

Bach, Haydn, Weber, and Rossini on one stage

The program spans a colorful arch through several musical epochs. Johann Sebastian Bach's hunting cantata opens the evening with precise orchestration and festive motion. Joseph Haydn's "The Autumn" from "The Seasons" brings together images of nature, vocal elegance, and classical clarity. Carl Maria von Weber's hunter's chorus from "Der Freischütz" sets striking accents, while Gioachino Rossini's "Rendez-vous de chasse" provides spirited contrasts with its dance rhythm and Italian brilliance.

Voices, Conducting, and Historic Acoustics

Judith Hoffmann, soprano, Bohyeon Mun, tenor, and Harald Martini, bass, shape the solo parts. Together with the Philharmonic Choir Duisburg and members of the Duisburg Philharmonic Orchestra, a concert evening emerges in which vocal synchronization, instrumental sound, and dynamic stage performance intertwine. The musical direction is under KMD Marcus Strümpe.

The gothic Salvatorkirche at Duisburg's Burgplatz lends the concert experience a special atmosphere. Within the historic walls, choir voices and orchestral sound unfold a spatially impactful effect: delicate pianissimo passages gain depth, while powerful tutti moments rise impressively into the church space. Thus, musical precision meets immediate live atmosphere against an extraordinary acoustic backdrop.

Autumn Songs and Wine to Conclude

After the concert, the autumnal mood continues with shared autumn songs and wine. The evening combines demanding classical choral music with a sociable conclusion, creating a concert experience that resonates beyond the last note. The free seating allows the audience to flexibly design their concert visit.

Conclusion

"Hooray, the wine is here!" promises a festive concert evening between Bach, Haydn, Weber, and Rossini, supported by choir, soloists, and Philharmonic members. Those wanting to experience classical music in the special live atmosphere of the Salvatorkirche should save this autumn date in Duisburg and discover the sound colors of autumn directly in the church space.
