Denn was w\u00fcrde der f\u00fcr uns mit seiner Musik so bedeutend gewordene Komponist empfinden, wenn er f\u00fcr einen Moment unser \u201eZeitgenosse&#8220; sein k\u00f6nnte? Dar\u00fcber l\u00e4sst sich reichlich fantasieren. Bachs Musik ber\u00fchrt uns ungebrochen. Sie beschenkt uns mit Freude und Trost, vers\u00f6hnt und schafft Verst\u00e4ndigung \u00fcber L\u00e4ndergrenzen hinweg. Wir k\u00f6nnen uns in seiner Musik letztlich selbst begegnen und damit zu einem guten Miteinander finden.<\/p>\n<p>On Monday, July 28, 2025, we commemorate the 275th anniversary of Johann Sebastian Bach\u2019s death. Together with Thomasorganist Johannes Lang and Peruvian bandoneonist and pianist Claudio Constantini, we will present a special concert in his honor.<\/p>\n<p>In its 44th year, the Concerts at the Bach Monument bring together international artists for another inspiring summer of music. The opening concert, featuring Art\u2019n\u2019Voices from Poland, and the commemorative concert on July 28 will both take place in St. Thomas Church (Thomaskirche). All other concerts will be held in front of the Bach Monument, weather permitting, or inside the Thomaskirche in case of rain.<\/p>\n<p>We would like to sincerely thank the City of Leipzig, the Thomaskirche Leipzig, and our sponsors (Sparkasse Leipzig, Bechstein Centrum Leipzig, TeilAUTO, Spirit Legal, Polish Institute Berlin) for their support. Their contributions make it possible once again for you to enjoy the Concerts at the Bach Monument during the summer in Leipzig.<\/p>\n<p>Admission is again free; donations are kindly requested after the concert.<\/p>\nRobert Herrmann &#8211; Organisation Konzerte am Bachdenkmal<br \/>\nAist\u0117 Orinait\u0117 &#8211; organisatorische Mitarbeit\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/konzerte-am-bachdenkmal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/kab-robert-herrmann.jpg\" alt=\"kab-robert-herrmann\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"500\" width=\"375\" title=\"kab-robert-herrmann\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<p>The concerts at the Bach Monument have been a special hallmark of Leipzig as a city of music since their founding in 1979. With their diversity and freshness, they are an expression of a lively musical culture. In 1994, the Leipzig city administration asked me to organise the concert series. <\/p>\n<p>Because of my retirement, I wanted to find a successor last year. I found a very suitable candidate a pianist and project manager Robert Herrmann from Leipzig. <\/p>\n<p>The joy of being alive that music can convey should continue to be experienced by many people without any admission charge. I wish the guests and participants from near and far an entertaining and enjoyable time full of musical pleasures this year and beyond.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\"
