The festive music of the probably greatest baroque composer fills opera houses and cathedrals, it is a constituent part of all British coronation ceremonies as well as the signature tune of the football Champions‘ League. With George Frederic Handel’s festive/swinging melodies, the Münchner Motettenchor welcomes the new year 2020. His brilliant „Dixit Dominus“ provides the musical fireworks for a crackling New Year’s Eve, as does the celebratory „Jubilate Domino“. And in between the two works for choir and soloists, the Suite Nr. 1 of Handel’s „Watermusic“ will add to the festive atmosphere.

Loewe, mainly known for his many ballads, was also very productive as a composer of oratorios. His „Sühneopfer des neuen Bundes“,which has in recent years become more popular as part of the normal repertoire in church music, is the most expressive of Loewe’s 17 oratorios and is full of dramatic vigour. The influence of Bach’s passions is especially noticeable in the choirs.

The Munich Motettenchor’s Summer Concert 2020 is marked by Rossini’s light and cheerful „Little Mass“. Written 34 years after the great composer’s last opera, he gave the work the title „Petite“ only ironically. In its dimensions, the mass is in the tradition of Beethoven’s „Missa Solemnis“. Notable is the instrumentation, with two pianos and a harmonium, giving the whole work an unusual sound and feeling.

After the concert the choir invites you to a summer reception, to celebrate the end of another successful season.
