Christmas In A Leipzig Coffeehouse

About the Event

Immerse yourself in a cozy winter evening steeped in tradition at 'Christmas In A Leipzig Coffeehouse'. Nestled in the picturesque Corpus Christi Church, this celebration brings together Leipzig's rich cultural heritage with the inviting atmosphere of a historic European coffeehouse.

Renowned violinist Shunske Sato conducts Juilliard415, showcasing the diverse musical traditions of Leipzig, embracing both sacred and secular works. The vibrant event highlights soloists from Juilliard’s Marcus Institute for Vocal Arts and the Juilliard Community Chorus performing arias and chorales from Bach’s Christmas Cantata.

Enhancing the festive spirit, concertos and suites from Bach’s Collegium Musicum—his personal music society—create a holiday feast inspired by Zimmermann’s Kaffeehaus in Leipzig.
