Frauenkirche Dresden

It is the traditional start to the pre-Christmas season for fans of classical music all over Germany: on the eve of the first Advent, the Frauenkirche shines in its baroque splendor and offers a magnificent experience with international guests and the Saxon State Orchestra. Many top-class artists have already accepted the invitation to the symbolic church and this time, two classical music stars are represented with Hanna-Elisabeth Müller and Piotr Beczała. The traditional Advent concert will be conducted by chief conductor Christian Thielemann, who last conducted the evening six years ago. Together with the Staatskapelle Dresden, he will carry the festive pre-Christmas mood into the Frauenkirche and, thanks to the ZDF television production, from there into numerous living rooms.
