An evening between mysticism, sound, and medieval power

With PHYSICA - Chants of Hildegard von Bingen, a special concert is coming to Duisburg-Mündelheim on September 26, 2026. In the late Romanesque church of St. Dionysius, the female choir Ars Choralis Coeln unfolds a concert experience that makes Hildegard's spiritual world audible in fine, glowing lines.

Hildegard's cosmos becomes a living language of sound

The foundation of the program is Hildegard's natural science work Physica, in which the abbess describes the forces of nature, the elements, and the connection between humanity and creation. Ars Choralis Coeln translates these thoughts into a musical space full of transparency, tension, and spiritual depth. The vocal art of the ensemble is considered precisely balanced, rich in colors, and authentically designed.

Vocal art in a sacred space

The acoustics of a church like St. Dionysius Mündelheim often give medieval music an almost floating effect. Here, the chants gain the resonance for which Ars Choralis Coeln has been appreciated for years: clear lines, sensitive intonation, and a presence that fills the space with calm intensity. The live atmosphere promises a quiet, concentrated concert experience with great emotional density.

Ars Choralis Coeln: internationally established, stylistically independent

The internationally composed female ensemble was founded in 2004 and has established itself in the medieval music scene both nationally and internationally. At the center of the repertoire is the music of women's monasteries in the Middle Ages, especially the music of Hildegard von Bingen. Critics highlight the tonal color, authentic design, and the special connection between historical performance practice and artistic presence.

A place with history in Duisburg-Mündelheim

St. Dionysius is approximately 800 years old and is one of the oldest buildings in Duisburg. Its location in Mündelheim, historic architecture, and sacred character create a framework that gives this program a special aura. For concert visitors from Duisburg and the region, this evening creates an impressive blend of culture, spirituality, and historical atmosphere.

Conclusion: A concert for listeners with a sense of depth and atmosphere

PHYSICA - Chants of Hildegard von Bingen is aimed at all who appreciate sacred music, historical sound worlds, and extraordinary live moments. Those who want to experience Hildegard's visions not only through reading but in sound should mark this evening at St. Dionysius Mündelheim and be there live.
