Classical concerts featuring

Kammerchor der Sing-Akademie zu Berlin

lautten compagney BERLIN: "Der Tod Jesu"

For many years, Carl Heinrich Graun's "The Death of Jesus" was a staple of Berlin's concert life, performed nearly continuously during Easter since its 1755 premiere. By the late 19th century, Bach's Passions eclipsed Graun's oratorio, leading to its obscurity. This Sophienkirche concert, part of the 2025 Easter Festival, offers a rediscovery of this forgotten masterpiece.
