How good it is that we can dream. How exhausting everyday life would otherwise be if we couldn't process all our experiences in our sleep and "sleep through and forget" all our misery. We can also approach the limbo between waking and sleeping musically. Whitacre's "Sleep" with its spherical chords provides the framework for a subconsciously experienced heavenly service. Between the triumphant mass sections of the French late Romantic composer and organist. The songs from "Des Knaben Wunderhorn" and the tale of loss and rapture in the night are interspersed between the triumphant mass sections by the French late Romantic composer and organ virtuoso Louis Viernes and Gustav Mahler's humorous "Fish Sermon".
In this concert by the Christuskantorei, everyone is invited to find their own "dream place" with beanbags and sofa cushions in the Christuskirche.
