These two concerts by the Balthasar Neumann Chor & Ensemble will be the culmination of the artistic residency that the ensembles, founded and led by Thomas Hengelbrock, will took on in Barcelona during the week preceding the concerts.

This is one of the most iconic projects in the 2023-2024 season at the Palau de la Música. Members of the ensembles will be able to participate in cultural life in Barcelona through open rehearsals, and through educational and charity chamber concerts in institutions. In addition, exhaustive work will be carried out in collaboration with the Orfeó Català, in response to requests from Hengelbrock himself.

In the company of the Palau choirs, they will perform two major symphonic and choral works from German Romanticism: A German Requiem by Brahms and Symphony No. 2, Lobgesang by Mendelssohn. The concerts at the Palau will be followed by an international trip to Hamburg by both Palau choirs, where they will perform the same repertoire for the first time with German ensembles at the Laeiszhalle and at the Elbphilharmonie.
