An lauen Sommerabenden, im Lichte der heraufziehenden D\u00e4mmerung, sind sie das Ereignis unter dem wachsamen Blick unseres gro\u00dfen Johann Sebastian Bach: jene Konzerte vor seinem markanten Denkmal, die nunmehr zum 45. Mal erklingen werden und ein eindrucksvolles Potpourri aus allen musikalischen Genres abbilden. Zur Erbauung von G\u00e4sten der Stadt und Einheimischen, zur Freude umliegender Kaffeeh\u00e4user, mit Unterst\u00fctzung der Thomasgemeinde, deren Kirchenpforten sich an Regentagen f\u00fcr die Konzerte \u00f6ffnen. Hunderte Zuh\u00f6rerinnen und Zuh\u00f6rer an jedem einzelnen Konzerttag \u00fcber Jahrzehnte hinweg – das ist nicht nur die \u00e4lteste Open-Air-Veranstaltung Leipzigs, es ist opulente \u201eStra\u00dfenmusik“, wie man sie nur in Leipzig erleben kann.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lassen Sie Ihren Tag ausklingen zu F\u00fc\u00dfen unseres ber\u00fchmtesten Kantors, vor der m\u00e4chtigen Kulisse seiner wichtigsten Wirkungsst\u00e4tte. Mit anerkannten und beliebten K\u00fcnstlerinnen und K\u00fcnstlern, die Ihnen an jedem Montag vom 6. Juli bis zum 31. August ein gl\u00fcckliches L\u00e4cheln ins Antlitz und Geh\u00f6r zaubern werden. Ich freue mich auf Sie!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dear Audience from Near and Far, Welcome to the Leipzig Bach Monument!<\/p>\n

Inspired by the Bach Monument<\/p>\n

Wie begegnen wir in unserer heutigen Zeit Johann Sebastian Bach und wie begegnet er uns?<\/p>\n

Eine spannende Frage! Denn was w\u00fcrde der f\u00fcr uns mit seiner Musik so bedeutend gewordene Komponist empfinden, wenn er f\u00fcr einen Moment unser \u201eZeitgenosse“ 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

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

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

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

Admission is again free; donations are kindly requested after the concert.<\/p>\nRobert Herrmann – Organisation Konzerte am Bachdenkmal

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

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

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
