About the production
Start

End

As part of the Lusatia Festival, the Europa Chor Akademie under the direction of Jan Hoffmann will be "building bridges" within the City of Europe:
On 12 September at 11:30 a.m. famous melodies from film history will be heard, including Henry Mancini's "Moon River". The singers will look from the terrace of the newly renovated Postplatz in Zgorzelec to St Peter's Church.
Then the choir switches to the German side: to the back of the historic Waidhaus, at the foot of St Peter's Church. Now looking east, Old Town Bridge. Here they present the 2nd part of the concert: romantic choral music by Rheinberger and Schumann, among others.
