A dream will be coming true for star singer Benjamin Appl. As a young boy, he learned to sing as one of the Cathedral Sparrows – the celebrated Regensburg Boys’ Choir. Now, together with soprano Elsa Dreisig and 60 of the Sparrows, he invites the audience to the beautiful Old Chapel in Regensburg to sing popular Christmas carols from Germany, France, England and Sweden.
It promises to be a diverse and international festive programme, and the perfect way to usher in the tranquil Christmas season. Bavaria's most distinguished Rococo church will resound with the beloved melodies of Cornelius and Mendelssohn as well as traditional Christmas carols including Silent Night, Holy Night, Christmas Lullaby and Petit Papa Noël.
